- Crisis of identity
Le Medi, a Mediterranean neighbourhood consisting of 93 dwellings in the Rotterdam district of Bospolder designed by Geurst & Schulze Architects, was completed this year.ArchiNed.nl – news
A visit to Le Medi made me ask myself the following question. What was the assignment that Woonbron Maasoevers housing association set for the architect to achieve this result? Or was it: Make a housing complex in a Mediterranean style that is more i…

- Who is Vedran Mimica?
From May 24 to June 10, Rotterdam will be the centre of the international architecture world, says Vedran Mimica. Who is Vedran Mimica? And what is his relation to the International Architecture Biennale Rotterdam? ArchiNed spoke to him.ArchiNed.nl – news
Born? In 1954 in Zagreb, then part of Yugoslavia. Study? I studied architecture at the University of Zagreb. Like so many young architects I entered competitions after graduation, among them a competition to design a monument for a young guerrilla fi…

- The city a school
A place in which to make contact, negotiate and sharpen points of view. That’s how Herman Hertzberger sees the city. And that’s how he wants the countless schools he designed to function. The exhibition Hertzberger’s Amsterdam, organised by ARCAM architecture centre to mark his 75th birthday displays a number of them.ArchiNed.nl – news
Hertzberger is renowned for the way he shaped, and continues to shape, a new and less traditional system of education that has evolved since the 1970s thanks to the influence of Maria Montessori and others. His schools do not emphasise learning from …

- Team 10: (In Search of) A Utopia of the Present
Myths, tall stories, tales of adventure: no shortage of them when it comes to Team 10. But fact and fiction are pulled apart in the recently issued book 'Team 10, 1953-81, In Search of a Utopia of the Present', on the new website Team10-Online, and in the major exhibition now on show at the NAi.ArchiNed.nl – news
'Team 10 grew out of criticism within CIAM, as an irritating grain in an oyster', said Aldo van Eyck in 1991. Criticism was directed against what critics saw as the extreme functionalism of Le Corbusier, whom Team 10 members believed wanted to create…

- Playgrounds by Aldo van Eyck
Almost everyone who grew up in Amsterdam during the '50s, '60s and '70s is connected by an unusual fact: they once played in one of the more than 700 playgrounds in Amsterdam designed by Aldo van Eyck. And outside Amsterdam too, almost every playground had one of his tumbling bars.ArchiNed.nl – news
Aldo van Eyck (1918-1999) was 28 when he joined the Department of City Development at Amsterdam Public Works in 1947. After working on city expansions for a short time, he was asked to design a playground for Bertelmanplein. At the time, there were j…

- Van Eyck’s Sonsbeek Pavilion Rebuilt
There was plenty of public interest at the recent opening of the rebuilt Sonsbeek Pavilion by Aldo van Eyck. The sculpture garden at the Kröller-Müller Museum now boasts a fascinating spatial structure.ArchiNed.nl – news
The Sonsbeek Pavilion – designed as a temporary space to house a series of smaller sculptures for 1966 Sonsbeek exhibition – was open for a single summer only. It then took on a life of its own as a design in the form of a handful of ph…
