Why do we build more than we need? With this publication, initiated by RE-ST architecten, the studio wants to put the - to them - unnecessary growth of 2020’s building stock on the agenda. While open spaces are becoming more and more scarce, RE-ST claims that planners and architects continue to overlook the possibilities of what has already been built. “Wanderspace’ is either built-over or undeveloped space that we have produced together, but that gets underused on a daily basis. It is space that exists everywhere and nowhere at different levels. Nobody knows exactly how much wanderspace there is.”To RE-ST and the contributors detecting, mapping and activating occasional space is a task and an opportunity for the architect. “Not to 'cram houses’ into it, but to work on the redevelopment of what already exists and only build when there is no other option.”
