The board of Architecture Workroom Brussels is pleased to announce a new phase in its leadership and organisational structure. From now on, we are structuring our work in three teams around the societal transformations on which we, together with our partners, will continue to focus on in the coming years: fossil-free and resilient neighbourhoods, productive sponge landscapes and societal infrastructure.
This evolution is accompanied by a renewed leadership structure. After 15 years under the direction of founders Joachim Declerck and Roeland Dudal, the day-to-day operations and further development of the organisation will from now on be carried out jointly by a management team consisting of Bram Vandemoortel, Hanne Mangelschots, Lene De Vrieze, Caroline Van Eccelpoel, Roeland Dudal and Joachim Declerck. As such, we consolidate the accumulated experience and fruitful cooperation of the past years.
The societal transformations will further structure the organisation. Roeland will lead the societal infrastructure track; Hanne the fossil-free and resilient neighbourhoods track and Bram the productive sponge landscapes track. Lene and Caroline are respectively in charge of AWB's strategic and business coordination. Joachim assumes the formal role of director.
The board expresses its sincere thanks to Roeland for the indelible contribution he has made to the projects, way of working and impact of Architecture Workroom Brussels as director over the past 15 years. Furthermore, we are saying goodbye to Frank Van Damme, who has been the financial director since 2022. We sincerely thank him for his valuable role in the further professionalisation of the organisation.
With this new re-drawn organisational scheme and shared leadership structure, Architecture Workroom is ready for the future. We look forward to building even more powerfully together on innovative practices, processes and coalitions for societal transformation.
