Newsletter for Superuse Studios projects, lectures and exhibitions.
Hello <<First Name>>, We've broke ground on the biggest Superuse building as of yet, since this month we've got an Advisory Board, work by Superuse Studios will be featured in at least two exhibitions in Europe and we've opened a webshop for Parici and the Seatbelt. More about all that in this newsletter.
07-02 to 27-04 Behind the Green Door exhibition at The Danish Architecture Centre, Denmark
24-01 Building started for Kringloop Zuid! Building has started for the recycling centre in Maastricht: Kringloop Zuid. All building materials for re use have been collected and are ready for use in the construction by the contractor Strukton van Straten. A 30 meter high reclaimed windmill wing will serve perfectly as the landmark, the extra large window façade will be comprised of facades from demolished apartment buildings, and a colorful steel profile cladding will use production waste from the SAB factory. The building is expected to be completed by the end of February, and the shop will open soon thereafter. This is a memorable moment. Five years after winning the competition, the largest Superuse building so far is becoming a reality!

Six initiatives were selected to start up and two of them will be taken further in their spatial development during a workshop we'll run on the Academy of Architecture in Groningen in january 2014. De Grote Rotterdamse Kunstkalender shows you daily in large (29,7 x 34 cm) the work of a contemporary Rotterdam Artist.

The photographer is Denis Guzzo. You can order the calendar here.
