Downtown | Rotterdam
Historic Rotterdam meets its modern era in a daring cantilevering housing tower with ample outdoor spaces and green roofs on a sturdy inviting urban plinth. The city is a time machine, and the changing architectural and planning views are sometimes so close together like layers of sediment that you can read it like a textbook […]
Binck City Park | The Hague
This project demonstrates that architecture is not just about designing large buildings but about shaping cities where people want to live, work, and feel at home. The urban redevelopment of the Binckhorst in The Hague raises fundamental questions about the balance between scale, identity, and meaning in our built environment. How do you create large-scale […]
Boogiewood | The Hague
The Binckhorst is an area in transformation. Where industry and large-scale business once dominated, a vibrant urban district is now emerging, blending living, working, and leisure. Boogiewood, the largest timber construction project in the Benelux, not only integrates all these functions but also marks a major step forward in ‘Paris-proof’ urban development. In the first […]
Ypsilon Park | The Hague
With Ypsilon Park, we elevate adaptive reuse into a holistic architectural system where ecology, structure, aesthetics and spatial quality align. Ypsilon Park is a residential transformation set within the stately green surroundings of Benoordenhout, The Hague. A Y-shaped former office building from the 1970s -connected to J.J.P. Oud’s listed former Shell headquarters – has been […]
De Vijzel | Amsterdam
De Vijzel is a bold, material-driven residential block that translates Oostenburg’s industrial past into a circular, energy-neutral future. Oostenburg, a former industrial enclave in the lee of Amsterdam’s city centre, is transformed into a lively mixed use residential district. From 1660 to 1800, the VOC shipyards were located here and at the beginning of the […]
Lumen | Scheveningen
Like a ship in a sea of beach grass, this luxurious housing project depicts the impression of an historic seaside hotel with modern natural materials, weathered, rough and beautifully imperfect. The design of Lumen originates in the beach feeling of the historic beach hotels. The design deploys on a sense of community by common functions […]
BOLD | Amsterdam
Bold is massive. Bold is black. A tower, entirely clad, from top to toe, in solar panels oozing climate ambitions combined with residential luxury. We use the concept of mass to define the ‘specific weight’ of the city. This refers to a social and economic basis for a viable city that can reinvent itself. At […]
De Baak | Amsterdam
This affordable housing project is an echo of modernistic times. Surrounded by green and a communal ground floor it introduces a sustainable addition that enriches its post war suburb. We love the architectural realm of the modern era. The clean and functionalist aesthetic shaped post war cities in the Netherlands. Its focus on the individual […]
Syp & Steyn | Utrecht
The SYP & Steyn are meant to heal scars of a 60’s modernist plan in the heart of Utrecht. Uniting large and small scale as well as historic and modern buildings around a compelling green courtyard. The city is a time machine, changing planning views are like layers of sediment that one can read like […]
TwoTwoFive | Amstelveen
An emblem of high-quality affordable housing that celebrates modernistic urbanism. A sustainable reinterpretation of the modernist slab and a symbol of green and luxurious living. Affordability in housing is a vulnerable practice. The limited construction budgets are in stark contrast to the major social challenges. We mixed a high standardization in construction process with a […]
