Digital contact moment new Open Call

The Team Flemish Government Architect has renewed the procedure of the Open Call. The new procedure will be presented in English during an online information session for designers on Thursday 17th of October at 15h (time zone Brussels). Register and learn more about the Open Call, and find out all about the latest changes of the procedure. 

The Open Call has been a constant within the functioning of the Team Flemish Government Architect since the year 2000. The results now colour the Flemish architectural landscape. Over the years, this tool has evolved, sometimes imperceptibly, due to societal trends. A number of factors –- changed legal frameworks, the economic context, the demand for more citizen participation, new insights on circular construction and so on –- created the need to re-evaluate the procedure. 

However, the principles and objectives of the Open Call remain unchanged. With the Open Call, we want to create opportunities for high-quality designs for concrete public assignments, while at the same time helping to develop a lively architecture culture in Flanders. The new procedure should support this even better through, among other things, a low threshold for application, a focus on design capacities during the selection phase, a well-conceived process and concise tenders.

The publication of the Open Call will henceforth take place in March and in October (instead of June and January).
