Natural Hypertransformation: Agriculture in Belgium and the Netherlands 2100 is a research by design advocating a new approach to planning large-scale infrastructure, particularly railways, to reduce agriculture’s physical footprint to facilitate environmental regeneration in the borderlands of Belgium and the Netherlands. In Northwest Europe, the Construction of new transportation infrastructure, particularly railway networks, is contributing to a significant transformation of the urban landscape. As national borders become increasingly porous, governance structures are redrawn to reflect these changes. The Trans-European Transport Network (TEN-T) introduced by European Commission (Regulation (EU) No 1315/2013, 2013), for instance, aims to create a continent-wide transport network that will improve connectivity between major European cities and new direct connections drastically reduce the travel time between such cities. This condition rises the significance of urban territories asthey become even more strategic in social structures due to their connectivity. The largescale infrastructural projects have the potential to introduce new modes of mobility and commerce, as well as new spatial conditions that will shape the future of urbanization in the region.
