Due to the pandemic and a subsequent busy – but successful – period, Marie Mees was unfortunately unable to participate in the planopli trip to Brazil in 2023. Determined to make this dream come true, Marie took the initiative herself: she gathered a group of ten enthusiastic travellers and asked planopli to organise the trip again. Together with Marie, planopli is opening up this unique trip to Brazil to at least as many additional participants.
At around the same time as the other group, ten other friends are also travelling to Japan to discover the architecture. Eva Lo from planopli will accompany them as a guide for part of the trip.
planopli offers this trip to Dutch architects, by invitation only

- the Dutch architecture magazine de Architect
- the open architecture association Archipel
- the Flemish Architecture Institute, Vlaams Architectuurinstituut
- the organisation City and Architecture, Stad en Architectuur
- the association of Interior Architects in Belgium AiNB
- the Flemish Master Builder, Vlaams Bouwmeester
- the committees for Housing and Welfare of the Flemish Government, Commissies Wonen en Welzijn van de Vlaamse Overheid
- the cooperation association Archimundo
- the architectural firms Robbrecht en Daem, the former Buro II (now B2Ai) and M4 architecten
- the master students (interior) architecture of UGent and LUCA Gent (KULeuven)
