Bureau d'architecture ELD.
Avec Corda I, sa toiture végétalisée à forte pente et sa façade vitrée volumétrique, la ville de Hasselt a accueilli son premier incubateur. Le projet, destiné à accueillir de jeunes entreprises et startups axées sur la technologie, la haute technologie, les TIC et les nouveaux médias, comprend 14 000 m² de bureaux et propose des installations communes telles que des salles de réunion, un café lounge, un restaurant et une réception centrale. . Le bâtiment a sept étages, des espaces de bureaux multi-locataires et flexibles et, à son point culminant, s'élève à trente mètres au-dessus du terrain environnant.
La conception du centre de services découle d'un plan directeur et d'un campus Corda développé pour l'ancien site de production Philips, transformant cette friche industrielle en un nouveau parc librement accessible
Corda Campus fonctionne désormais comme l'ultime accroche-regard, avec l'architecture et le paysage fusionnant en un seul. Ce projet est un succès à plusieurs niveaux et a attiré de nombreuses entreprises, accélérant à son tour la nécessité de compléter le plan directeur avec Corda II et Corda III.

With Corda I, its steep green roof and its volumetric glazed facade, the city of Hasselt hosted its first incubator. The project, intended to accommodate young companies and start-ups focused on technology, high technology, ICT and new media, includes 14,000 m² of office space and offers common facilities such as meeting rooms, a café lounge, a restaurant and a central reception. . The building has seven floors, multi-tenant and flexible office space and, at its highest point, rises thirty meters above the surrounding land.
The design of the service center stems from a master plan and a Corda campus developed for the former Philips production site, transforming this industrial wasteland into a new freely accessible park
Corda Campus now functions as the ultimate eye-catcher, with architecture and landscape merging into one. This project is a success on many levels and has attracted many companies, in turn accelerating the need to complete the master plan with Corda II and Corda III.
Silbersalz35 is a German startup that offers Kodak cine film re-packaged in standard 35 mm film cartridges plus development and high resolution scans. Their film is sold in packs of four cartridges.
I tried them once last winter, at the time with four rolls of their 500T tungsten balanced high ISO film.
This time I ordered a pack of four different rolls. This is the ISO 50 daylight balanced fine grain fim. Silbersalz 35 now comes in DX coded cartridges. The DX code would automatically set an overexposure by one stop, but I overrode that and exposed it at ISO 50.
I used the Zeiss Ikon Contarex with a Planar 50 lens for this roll.
I have created a Flickr group for photos shot with the Zeiss Ikon Contarex.

The American Industrial Center commands the street corner with an authoritative presence that speaks to both its historical roots and contemporary purpose. Shot during the blue hour when natural light fades and artificial illumination takes over, this massive structure showcases one of San Francisco's most successful examples of industrial adaptive reuse at the Pier 70 complex.
This building's design language is distinctly different from its historic brick neighbors across the street. The warm terracotta and cream-colored facade, punctuated by hundreds of steel-framed windows arranged in a precise grid, represents a more modern approach to preserving industrial character. The exposed concrete structure with its bold horizontal banding creates a rhythm across the facade that's both industrial and elegant. It's a careful balance between honoring the site's manufacturing heritage and creating functional contemporary space.
The ground floor colonnade is particularly striking—a series of white columns creating a covered arcade that provides both practical weather protection and architectural drama. The generous ceiling height and open design of this ground-level space recall the loading docks and open bays that would have characterized the original industrial waterfront. Modern lighting fixtures illuminate the walkway, casting bright pools of light that contrast beautifully with the deep blue twilight sky above.
Looking at the fenestration pattern, you can see how the building is organized. Those massive window groupings speak to the flexible loft-style spaces within—high ceilings, open floor plans, and abundant natural light. This is exactly what creative companies, tech startups, and design firms look for when choosing office space. The industrial bones provide character that no suburban office park could replicate, while the modern systems and finishes provide the functionality contemporary businesses require.
The street scene itself tells a story about how Pier 70 functions today. A few cars are parked along the curbs, traffic signals glow red and blue, and the crosswalk striping is crisp and fresh. The overhead power lines cutting across the frame are a reminder that this is a working neighborhood, not some sanitized development that erases all traces of urban grit. That utility pole on the right and the various street fixtures ground the scene in everyday urban reality.
What's particularly notable about this perspective is how it captures the building's corner condition. Corner buildings have always been architecturally significant—they're visible from multiple directions, they anchor intersections, and they help define the character of a neighborhood. The American Industrial Center embraces this responsibility, presenting strong facades on both street frontages and creating a landmark that helps orient visitors to the district.
The lighting design deserves attention. Those glowing windows on the upper floors suggest activity within—people working late, businesses that operate beyond traditional hours. The variety in the window illumination, with some blue-toned lights visible among the warmer glows, hints at the diverse mix of tenants and uses within. Meanwhile, the ground-floor lighting creates a welcoming pedestrian environment, crucial for a neighborhood that's trying to balance its industrial past with a more mixed-use future.
Dogpatch and the broader Pier 70 area have become a laboratory for urban planners and developers interested in adaptive reuse. Rather than demolishing these massive industrial structures, San Francisco has chosen to preserve and repurpose them. The American Industrial Center represents a slightly different approach than the historic brick buildings nearby—here, the strategy was to create new construction that respects the industrial aesthetic without directly mimicking historical architecture. It's contextual design that speaks to its surroundings while maintaining its own distinct identity.
The empty streets at this hour create a contemplative atmosphere. You can appreciate the architecture without distraction, study the interplay of light and shadow, and imagine the building's multiple lives—past industrial uses, periods of vacancy or underutilization, and now this current chapter as a hub for the modern economy.
