Nieuw Zuid residential and office buildings

David Chipperfield ArchitectsAntwerp, Belgium2019

Nieuw Zuid is a new neighbourhood located on a brown-field site to the south of the historic centre of Antwerp, on the quays the River Schelt. The masterplan, designed by Studio Bernardo Secchi & Paola Viganò, defines a series of public and green spaces framed by buildings and bisected by a central thoroughfare. Different architects were invited to design the individual blocks with most opting for a U-shaped plan framing a garden or square. In contrast to this approach David Chipperfield Architects’ design proposes two perpendicular buildings: one residential and the other offices which together define a central garden.
