Goal
Building Beyond Borders is an action group at UHasselt of architecture & design enthusiasts who believe that construction can be done differently. We are a collective that explores new possible paths to challenge the constraints of our professions.
We believe in architecture as a social and political act; in its effects on society as a fundamental part of the process and in the act of building as a tool for innovation and resistance.
We dream of building beyond the limits of conventions.
We dream of building beyond the human.
