Disturbed City is a series of architectural interventions along the axis of the North-South junction in Brussels.

The reason why this project takes place in Brussels is that its city centre has a long tradition of radical urban and spatial interventions. For example, the connection between the North – and South – train stations was one of the biggest interruptions in the city’s grown structure. This route generated a great number of leftover-places when it was planned.

Those abandoned places are the ones targetted to hold a series of site-specific light interventions, treating those places as “disturbed” architectural monuments revealing their past and suggesting their probable future.
