Home Beyond Walls explores how architecture can foster belonging in rapidly changing urban environments. Focusing on Hoboken, Antwerp, the project combines ethnographic research, storytelling, and participatory design to reveal how personal narratives shape space. Through adaptive reuse of former factory buildings into cooperative housing and a community library, the design supports flexibility, care, and ecological continuity. Grounded in lived experience, the project offers a transferable approach to creating meaningful, inclusive urban spaces.
