and French parts of the territory, and availability in the
Wallonian part... by federating the industrial spaces as
part of one system, we might offer an opportunity to
each of the regions.”

The principle of the compact city and the separation
of urban areas from open space is not suited to the
actual reality and dynamics of the territory.

How can Design and Governance come together to
facilitate urban growth - with a specific focus on man-

21. The construction of a new conceptual framework for
the development of Flanders can be a model for the
future development of places with a similar territorial
construct; such as the Veneto region and England’s
Midlands.

23. As third world countries threaten to overtake the West
in knowledge based industries, Europe also needs to
be able to compete in the manufacturing sector.
24. As is tradition in times of economic crisis, welfare
states in Europe are devolving power and pushing for
localism; encouraging small - medium entrepeneur-
ialism as a more sustainable economic resilience.

Thesis 2013/2014
Design can and does create territorial
cohesion and has the potential to con-
tribute to the integration and increase of
manufacturing industries within urban
structures.
