Film ‘Circular renovation – Old buildings with modular interior’
How to renovate old factories in a circular way? Discover the sustainable redevelopment of the Werkspoorfabriek in Utrecht (the Netherlands) with Gabrielle (Erfgoed Werkspoor Utrecht) and Eldin (Sustainer Homes) in the film Circular renovation – Old buildings with modular interior. The episode is part of the film series Werkspoorkwartier Utrecht, creative and circular manufacturing.
Werkspoorfabriek as communal building for businesses
Up until the 1970’s, the 175 metre-long building was used for the production of trains and bridges. Werkspoorfabriek is now a meeting place for creative entrepreneurs to work together and grow. The framework for the working community is the modular interior: the circular box-in-box system developed by Sustainer Homes.
