As part of the developments around the A2 corridor, the Flight Forum business park is being built near Eindhoven Airport, according to an urban development plan by MVRDV. Intensive buildings (offices, industrial halls), public green areas, and asphalt plains alternate in the plan creating a landscape atmosphere with its own identity for each cluster. Flight Square is centrally located in the office cluster, where the undulating landscape forms the connecting element between the buildings. Due to the depth of the plot and the need to provide the office spaces with optimal daylight, a patio has been created in the heart of the building and the office spaces are high studio-like spaces.
