Nutsbedrijven Regio Eindhoven
The Nutsbedrijven Regio Eindhoven (NRE) terrain is an old industrial area in which the old buildings have been declared to be monuments. People who live and will live in this area form a community that wants to transform it into a green and liveable area. A large green façade has been implemented together with new green spaces including trees, perennials and grasses. In addition, some special elements have been implemented such as large water barrels, worm hotels and pergolas.
POTENTIAL FOR REPLICATION AND UPSCALING
Several elements implemented in the NRE terrain may prove to be attractive to residents and function as intended, and will then be considered for other local projects.
