AP University College - Campus Noorderplaats

A compact, future-ready campus designed for connection and openness.

Located at the northern tip of Park Spoor Noord, the new AP University College campus redefines the concept of a city campus. Positioned at the start of the Leien boulevards, the building makes a striking impression with its cantilevered upper volume and diamond-patterned concrete façade. Inside, a green central patio and open glass corridors create a welcoming, light-filled environment that encourages interaction and transparency.
The campus was developed through a renewed architectural competition that emphasized ambition and accessibility. The result is a compact, sustainable academic space that integrates seamlessly into Antwerp’s urban fabric—offering a vibrant setting for learning, collaboration, and community engagement.
