Venue Building Silt Middelkerke is a new beacon on the Belgian coastline. This unique project has multiple goals: creating a new venue building, reinforcing the dike, developing a car-free promenade, and enhancing public space. With these principles, the multidisciplinary design team created a unique design where the building and landscape merge seamlessly. Wrapped in Accoya wood beams, Silt’s striking silhouette is visible along the entire coast, acting as a catalyst for the city’s vibrant heart.
