Duurzaam Monument van de Toekomst

Sustainable Monument of the Future: a heritage story cabinet

Heritage is identity, continuity and time. They are stories, visions and imaginations that we have preserved because they still mean something for today – and tomorrow.

Interactive installation

With the support of Cultural Heritage Agency (RCE) and in collaboration with various partners from the heritage sector, we are developing an interactive installation that offers insight into sustainable heritage: then, now and in the near future. The installation – designed as a cabinet full of extendable and removable elements – tells stories about traditional materials and methods, to contemporary innovations and future-oriented solutions. Visitors can discover, touch, open, read and scan. QR codes lead to in-depth information or narrators can provide live context.

Two perspectives: Landscape & Urban

The installation has two parts: one focuses on the landscape perspective (with materials such as reeds and loam), and one on the urban perspective, taking brick as a central issue. The content is divided into six thematic narratives: Repurposing, Circular building methods, Biobased Materials, Cultural Landscape, Nature Inclusive Building and Intangible Heritage. Each theme highlights inspiring exemplary projects that make the connection between past and future.

On tour

The installation is modular and travelable: suitable for placement at events such as heritage fairs, conferences or festivals, but also deployable within organizations as a starting point for workshops or internal reflection on sustainability.

The installation is an invitation to see heritage not as something static, but as a living system in motion.
