The project was shaped through workshops, discussions with Rotor and the people already active on site, and a regular presence at BORD to better understand its daily rhythms, dynamics and needs. It is based on a series of targeted interventions that improve the site’s current functioning by working with existing structures rather than adding new buildings.
Three principles have guided the project from the start: BEFORE, valuing what is already there; SYSTEM, developing spatial and constructive principles that can adapt over time; and LEAVE, allowing room for appropriation, changing uses and the unexpected.
This guided visit explores BORD’s renovation and transformation through a walk across the site and its buildings.
