Hands-on Workshop at Hoogcruts Monastery
The Het Limburgs Landschap Foundation actively supports the sustainable transition of the former Hoogcruts monastery, transforming it into a euregional hub for building cultures, sustainable practices, and an incubator for arts and crafts. This location will serve as an ideal paradigm of sustainability. In partnership with local stakeholders and other schools of architecture, we are conducting a series of practical experiments involving natural and recycled materials, both in practice and theory, through projects, seminars, and summer schools.
