The jury recognised WVDM Living Lab by MAKER Architecten as an ambitious research and demonstration project for the future of low-carbon retrofit. By transforming a former modernist concrete-framed structure into dormitories and polyvalent spaces, the project shows how rigorous analysis, reuse strategies, and design for disassembly can shape a new way of working with existing buildings.
