Soon and Coming
Exhibition Finissage
The Berlage is pleased to invite you to the exhibition finissage of "Soon and Coming," on Thursday, November 6 from 17:00 onwards in the Department of Architecture Corridor.
The exhibition presents the initial master plan for Northland, a mixed-use redevelopment led by the community association Northland Friends. It is organized as part of The Community, a collective thesis project focused on the former Northland Shopping Center site in Southfield, Michigan, United States, conceived around a master plan for its transformation into a mixed-use development. Engaging with the site’s historical, social, and spatial contexts, this design-based exploration reimagines its future through diverse forms of architectural inquiry. A series of exhibitions, podcasts, publications, events, and films support and enrich both collective and individual propositions. These are communicated through drawings, models, texts, and other spatial media that examine the role of design in the shaping of the built environment.
