Egied Van Broeckhoven School in Sint-Jans-Molenbeek
1st Place Award in Heritage & Architecture
This project brings together heritage, circular construction, and social engagement. The former brewery was transformed into a modern, sustainable school while respecting its Art Deco architecture. Thanks to collaboration with local organisations, the school also serves as a social hub in the neighbourhood. Sweco was responsible for structural engineering, acoustics, technical systems, energy performance, and sustainability.

One of the largest tunnel renovations in Flanders, with a strong focus on sustainability and safety.

Public Choice Award in Heritage & Architecture
This former military site has been transformed into an open urban district with housing, the provincial government building, a hotel, and a neighbourhood park. Within the ‘bouwteam’, we were responsible for the structural engineering.
