Founded in 2005 and based in Brussels, Rotor is a multidisciplinary design and research organisation focusing on material flow and reuse. It seeks to foster dialogue on resources, waste, and obsolescence through research, exhibitions, conferences, and publications.

In addition to actively coordinating large-scale demolition operations, Rotor is also involved in architecture, interior design, and urban planning projects. In 2016, Rotor Deconstruction was founded, which specialises in the salvaging and trading of building components. Brussels-based Rotor and Rotor DC have over 20 employees.

Stijn Colon is an architect and researcher at Rotor, and has worked on design jobs, exhibitions, publications, as well as research and education projects as an expert. He is co-author of Ad Hoc Baroque, a soon-to-be-published book on the post-war reuse architecture of Marcel Raymaekers. Since 2020, he also teaches architecture at KU Leuven.

Further education credits for visiting the Architectural Matters lectures are available from the Chamber of Hungarian Architects. The talks are free and open to the public. For attendees collecting credits from the Chamber, prior registration is required.
