ABSTRACT:
This master’s dissertation is about the development of a strategy that is able to alleviate and change in a sustainable way the mismanagement of the inherited architecture and its history; also serving as an example for future cases. In the following case study, we try to reconnect the municipality of Muide, in Ghent, with the city itself. We analyze how to give back a promising future to this village, without losing its identity as an industrial harbor. We are not only looking to reach the physical connection between Ghent and its inhabitants, but we are also aiming to achieve the intangible connection where the values of the past, implicit in the manual work, in education and based on cooperation of its population.
