Architecture Day 2025

The challenges of our time in areas such as climate, energy, mobility, economy, agriculture, water, and social justice call for a fundamentally different approach to our space. This requires a rethinking of how we engage with the built environment and a new approach to the creation of buildings and neighborhoods. The architectural practice is undergoing a significant transformation. New techniques, design methods, and societal demands are prompting architects and urban planners to find new solutions.

Each year, SCHUNCK organizes an inspiring program around these themes. Further details for these days will follow.

Architecture Café

As a warm-up for the national weekend of Architecture Day 2025, SCHUNCK, in collaboration with the Limburg Architecture Collective, will host the very first Architecture Café on 13 June. Under the national theme In Transition, we will focus on a current and urgent question: how do we build for the future?

What is Architecture Day?

Architecture Day is for anyone interested in architecture and urban development. Since 1986, it has been a nationwide event that attracts a large number of visitors. Many towns and cities open the doors to notable buildings and offer a program of lectures, debates, exhibitions, films, and tours. Locally, each city or region tailors the program to its own context.

Architecture Day showcases iconic buildings and highlights what architecture can do for the quality of our living environments in cities, towns, and regions. Architecture and urban planning play a crucial role in addressing major socio-economic and spatial challenges, such as democratization and participation, sustainability in cities and society, and healthy urbanization.
