Design strategies at intermediate scale for the next urban constellation.\u201d and is under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Maarten Gheysen (KU Leuven) and Prof. Dr. Erik Van Daele (KU Leuven). She explores, amongst other issues, strategic nodes of physical networks of dispersed territories and their influence for future urban transformation processes. The research is situated in the research cell All City\/All Land which investigates the relationships of dispersed territories and urbanity, of which the transnational project and case study Eurometropolis Lille\u2013Kortrijk\u2013Tournai is a particular example.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em>This PhD is funded by an FWO Fundamental Research Grant<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 Sophie Leemans (1996) graduated in the Master in Architecture at KU Leuven campus Sint-Lucas Brussels where she finished summa cum laude and was laureate of the master\u2019s&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1172","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.collectivespaces-kuleuven.be\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1172","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.collectivespaces-kuleuven.be\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.collectivespaces-kuleuven.be\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.collectivespaces-kuleuven.be\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.collectivespaces-kuleuven.be\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1172"}],"version-history":[{"count":19,"href":"https:\/\/www.collectivespaces-kuleuven.be\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1172\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1680,"href":"https:\/\/www.collectivespaces-kuleuven.be\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1172\/revisions\/1680"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.collectivespaces-kuleuven.be\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1172"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
