Plug-in City 2.0

Plug-in-City is a creative community established in a city in motion.

Temporarily based in the middle of Strijp-S in Eindhoven, this community of designers, architects, artists and other professionals has combined its expertise in the circular economy to build a space that functions as a creative living lab, workshop, event space and cultural centre.

Through the use of containers, old windows, second-hand and borrowed materials, this small “city” is built entirely on the principles of the circular economy. Everything we have has been used, reused and can be easily dismantled.
