De Antistad (2016)
Pionier van kleiner groeien

The Antistad presents the development history of the Netherlands' most aging, most transitional and, according to some, most failed city: Heerlen. 

Decades of growth pushed the phenomenon of urban shrinkage to the background and raises the question: how do we grow smaller? How do we built cities smaller? Shrinkage as the accelerator of change.
