An international team comprising OKRA, IT’s, OMA, NET Engineering, and other collaborators has won the Vision for Rome competition, organised by the Roma REgeneration Foundation.

The winning proposal, Roma Continua—guided by four core principles of well-being, beauty, knowledge, and “reform and extension”—reimagines Rome as a living Secosystem, establishing a framework for adaptation and reinvention over time while building on the city’s inherent qualities and existing strengths. The proposal introduces targeted interventions across multiple scales, including green corridors, mobility hubs, and new programmes that integrate housing with adaptive reuse.

We are proud to design the public space for Utrecht Science Park, working in parallel with the urban development of this evolving campus. As a landscape practice rooted in Utrecht, contributing to the future of the Netherlands’ largest science park and one of its most important academic environments for research, education, healthcare, and innovation marks a landmark moment for us!

Our design helps unlock the wetland landscape of Clogheenmilcon Fen as a new nature destination for Cork and its surrounding towns! We developed a design proposal that helped Cork City Council reveal new possibilities for this remarkable wetland landscape. Located just east of Blarney, the 100-hectare fen is a rare ecological habitat and natural floodplain shaped by the River Blarney. Our aim is to strengthen the connection between people and nature, while protecting the site’s rich flora, fauna, and heritage.

We are proud to begin a new project: a sustainable landscape for BuitenBuren, a residential development that transforms Almere Buiten Centrum into a nature‑inclusive vertical neighbourhood! Our design establishes a continuous green framework from courtyards to roofscapes, forming a climate-adaptive ecosystem rooted in the 3-30-300 principle.

Our vision for the new Polytechnique station area is now under construction! Designed first and foremost as a place for people, it offers spaces to pause, meet, and connect with nature.

We’re delighted to share the pre-planning design for Dublin City Council’s Grow College Green, the flagship project that reimagines the historic heart of Dublin as a world-class, people-first public realm!

Grow College Green is being led by Dublin City Council in partnership with the National Transport Authority, supported by a multi-disciplinary design team headed by Irish architects Scott Tallon Walker Architects and OKRA, urban design and landscape architects from the Netherlands, along with specialists in planning, lighting, heritage, accessibility and community engagement. The project’s mission is to shape the capital city as a destination for everyone, not only a place to shop, work, gather and celebrate, but also a space to pause, breathe and connect.

We’re proud to see our vision and strategy for the Integraal Kwaliteitskader Binnenstad Venlo (Integrated Quality Framework for Venlo City Centre), officially adopted by the Municipal Executive (Mayor and Aldermen), marking a major step forward for Venlo’s inner city transformation!

Through our vision for the IKBV, Venlo’s city centre is positioned at a pivotal moment of change. Recognising that the city centre was once primarily retail focused, our strategy guides its evolution into a vibrant mixed‑use urban environment, steering from “a place to buy” to “a place to be”.

We are delighted to share that our design has been selected for the new House of the Citizen in Middelkerke, Belgium! Conceived as part of the vision for the “City Center of Tomorrow,” the new town hall, designed together with Cordeel and BINST ARCHITECTS, will become a future‑oriented, sustainable, and instantly recognizable landmark on the renewed municipal square.

On 17 December, the environmental permit for Hub 3.0 at Brussels Airport was officially issued by Flemish Minister for the Environment and Agriculture, Jo Brouns. This marks an important step for Brussels Airport in the further development of the airport.

Marina Park in Cork, an ambitious project ongoing since 2012 is now finally completed and officially open to the public, serving as a vibrant catalyst for the transformation of Cork’s docklands. Marina Park fulfils the long-standing promise of creating a regional park to the east of the city. Positioned a short distance from the city centre, the completed project comprising an eco-park and a riverside promenade spans 70 acres, significantly expanding Cork’s green spaces. Last weekend marked the long-anticipated opening of the fully completed park to the public!
