REcentre opens temporary park in Maastricht (NL)

In doing so REcentre works together with Marres Projects (www.marres.org) and seeks cooperation with local designers, architects, activists, organizations and habitants of Maastricht.

As a start of the project, on the 13th and the 14th of October 2011, ecological gardener Hans Engelbrecht started with creating a mowing plan for the lot so that the beginnings of a park became visible.

Meanwhile, design students from the Fachhochschule in Dusseldorf worked together - in the framework of the education programme of The Great Indoors Awards 2011 - with landscape architect Ernst van der Hoeven (www.ernstvanderhoeven.com) and designer Frank Bruggeman (www.frankbruggeman.com) on an initial function and ‘interior’ for the park.

The temporary park is realised with the generous cooperation of Belvedère Wijkontwikkelingsmaatschappij (www.belvedere-maastricht.nl) and Gemeente Maastricht (www.maastricht.nl).
