An Alliance for Renovation

Energy-efficient renovation is a challenge that requires the mobilization of a multitude of actors, all with different backgrounds, professional skills and ways of working. Through the creation of a private-public alliance, we help them to work as one team.

Create a thriving collaboration between public administrations and private actors in order to achieve the energy-efficient renovation objectives for the Brussels-Capital Region: a project about stakeholder management and collective intelligence.

Participation in co-housing projects

An overview of best practices and the most effective ways of applying participatory methods to housing projects. What does participatory design involve? Why involve tenants in it? What strategies and tools work best? A study for the King Baudouin Foundation.

With a view to disseminating co-design philosophy, the King Baudouin Foundation asked Méthos to map out best practices and methods to foster participation in designing or renovating buildings.

Waterarmoede

Water is een basisrecht. In steden als Brussel zien we echter dat dat sommige mensen geen toegang hebben tot water. Deze realiteit is moeilijk te begrijpen en te accepteren.

In grote steden zoals Brussel hebben mensen die in armoede leven in sommige gevallen geen toegang tot water. In overleg met Gewestelijke overheidsdiensten en een aantal Brusselse sociale partners, onderzocht Méthos dit fenomeen en werkte aan oplossingen om dit probleem aan te pakken.

Energy-efficient housing

The standards for energy-efficient buildings are reshaping the way people live in them. The question, then, is how to factor people into the way new-generation buildings are designed and managed.

Energy-efficient homes are changing people’s lifestyles. On this project, Méthos worked with dwellers, housing organisations and authorities to integrate the human dimension more effectively in new construction standards.
