Participation house is an interface between the inhabitants of Anderlecht and the local council.

The main architectural intervention consists of removing extraneous additions thus allowing the original proportions of the building to reappear. At the back of the building, a roof in plywood distracts us and opens up a view of the garden at the end of the perspective. A new staircase has been built and will allow people to come and go in safety and comfort between the new polyvalent room on the ground floor and the meeting rooms on the upper floors.
