Talk The open space along the Western ring railway L28 has long been marginalized in Brussels planning processes. Thanks to its historical and ecological richness, the site is an excellent research object in the context of urban( sound) design. In four workshops we explored the relation between the sonic environment and the landscape of the area. In dialogue with experts from fields such as field recording and urban planning we reflected on how the current sound environment could be improved.
