About Parfois

If it was up to us, all the best design in the world would be posted within the Parfois Portfolio. But it's not up to us. Stumbling the web we often bump into things worth sharing. The world wide web is so full off great things that will never end up in our portfolio, but which we want the world to see. For this we created our blog. At this moment there are 4 of us blogging on a regular basis. Work, studies and social life makes that there are weeks with a lot of posts, and weeks without. But we'll do our best in bringing you the nicest shit on a acceptable basis.

LINK

16.09.11

LINK creates a temporary physical connection between the Fontainas square and the Fontainas park,which forms the only public green space in this North-South axis in the centre of Brussels, Belgium. LINK aims to launch a debate on a potential redefinition of this urban site.

The use of scaffolding for its material refers to public works, and aims to trigger all sorts of associations to this material: change, evolution, restoration, starting of larger works, the beginning of something new… Locals and passerby are in this way involved and mobilized for the possible change that LINK aims to bring in.

LINK is the Brussels/Belgian contribution to the European project Green Days which takes place this summer in four European cities and focuses on the relationship between urban and natural environment, and runs from August 12 to October 14, 2011.
Green Days in Belgium is organised by the non-profit association AAA.
LINK is designed by Wouter De Raeve, partner of Dees & Lepage Landscape Architecture Bureau, and is supported by the European Cultural Foundation (ECF).
