Mannekensvere

Concept

This construction project consisted of a petrol station with a shop and snack bar. The overall entity blends in with the Mannekensvere countryside.

The design's emphasis was placed on sustainability and flexibility. Particular attention was paid to the site's maintainability. The development project combined a responsible form of recyclability and transience.

The building was designed and built parallel to the motorway. Its design and materials have a transparent look and feel. This lends the structure a refined appearance without losing its industrial character. The hierarchy of the buildings and their functions is easily identifiable for users and passers-by.
