What is the variation in the different types of houses? ‘In the Netherlands, there are many great examples of small-scale housing forms that could (partly) be used as detention houses. They have been around for decades and are already being used in many different ways. So…we have the houses…we have the knowledge … and we have the network … Why are people still going to prison instead of going to different types of houses? We will talk about this during the Livestream ‘A house is a house is a house.’

In 2021, RESCALED Netherlands will enter into a partnership with Pakhuis de Zwijger, a cultural center, to further develop the idea of a detention house within the circular city of the near future in their program ‘Designing Cities For All’.
Pakhuis de Zwijger is an accessible, independent and safe public meeting place for everyone. A contemporary ‘talking house’ with a strong online environment that has opted for dialogue as a form of conversation. A place where they jointly formulate ambitions and present different opinions and insights in order to arrive at creative solutions for the urgent and complex social issues of our time; where we bring artists and designers together with scientists, policymakers, practitioners and citizens in all their diversity. Where together they visualize the city and metropolitan region of tomorrow, test research results against everyday practice and present technological and social innovation as alternatives to current policy and actual reality. And finally, above all, a place where a lot of questions are asked, while embracing and tackling social issues. read more

In the context of the super-diverse city, how can designers contribute to the creation of inclusive cities for, and by everyone? ‘Cities of Belonging’, as we would call them, cities in which everyone feels and is allowed to feel at home. Not only in a spatial sense but also with regard to the digital domain and relating to the design of our public systems, services, and products.
