Zebrastraat

The building, also named the Zebrastraat after its location, remains a private project dedicated to housing, entrepreneurial, and cultural initiatives.

Their plan to improve housing on the Zebrastraat centered on a building project designed and supervised by Charles Van Rysselberghe, the officially appointed "City Architect" of Ghent.

People can rent short or long term apartments, companies can book meetings or events, and artists can display their performances.

The first initiative was the exhibition Stippels en Pixels in early 2005, linking new digital art forms with the pointillism of Theo Van Rysselberghe, brother of the original Zebrastraat architect.

In 2010, a second Update exhibition was organized, in the form of Body Sound, in cooperation with the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris.
