Flux has been commissioned to create a vision for the Groene Woud. The area between Den Bosch, Eindhoven and Tilburg has future potential to become the green lung for the cities as a recreational area and also in the production of raw materials, clean water and food. Flux is investigating a spatial future perspective for the area, commissioned by the province of Noord-Brabant.
Commissioned by the Culemborg municipality, Flux is working with SVP Architecture on the station area of Culemborg. Before summer, the Masterplan was approved by the city council, bringing the development of the area one step closer. On the outdated industrial area Pavijen housing will be built in combination with businesses and a maximum green and attractive public space. In the district the car will be a guest and parking will be on the edges. The station area will also become a nicer place, with better connections and a new neighborhood park at the heart of the development.

Flux is working on a design for the new Thak climate park in Utrecht. Where the Thomas à Kempislaan is now, a new climate park will be built. Flux has been working on the project since 2019, in close coordination with the neighborhood. In this, the urban design was first set up in collaboration with M3H Architecten, after which Flux created the design of the new neighborhood park and two courtyard gardens. The new park provides space for nature, water storage and cooling in the city with additional space for play and residential areas. New and existing buildings, such as the Gerardus Majella Church, stand together adjacent to the new park. In the coming months, Flux will work on a final design for this new green spot in Utrecht, with the architecture being further developed by M3H. Commissioned by Gemeente Utrecht, Woonin, Dura Vermeer and Portaal.
