The New Economics University transforms an underused urban area in Hasselt into an educational and civic anchor. Blending architectural design with urban revitalization, the project connects the BEW Faculty with the city through a permeable ground floor, a luminous atrium, and tiered learning spaces. It redefines the university as a place of public engagement, offering a spatial sequence that encourages interaction between students, residents, and the built environment.
