Let's Go Urban: Transforming Antwerp’s Urban Center with vibrant colours
Context
In 2017, Let's Go Urban opened the Urban Center in Antwerp, a space dedicated to supporting over 1,000 young people per week after school hours. The centre provides a positive and inspiring environment, helping young people from diverse backgrounds develop their talents and shape their future.
Challenge
Out Of Office was tasked with designing a welcoming and functional space, while reinforcing the centre’s identity and energy. The goal was to create a dynamic and stimulating atmosphere that reflects the vibrant spirit of the young people attending.
Solution
To maximise visual impact, Out Of Office implemented large areas of bold colours, achieving:
- Clear spatial organisation: Differentiating functional areas using colour zoning.
- A dynamic atmosphere: Infusing the space with energy and motivation.
- Optimised perception of space: Visually enhancing the sense of openness and warmth.
This colour palette was complemented by graphic murals, created in collaboration with local artists, to reflect urban culture and the identity of the youth using the centre.
Result
The Urban Center has become a landmark in Antwerp, offering young people an inspiring and stimulating space where they can express themselves, learn, and grow. This creative design approach proves that a strong vision can redefine a space and leave a lasting impression.
