  • What to do with a building like Centraal Beheer
    Before the summer holidays it seemed like Herman Hertzberger’s Centraal Beheer was destined for demolition, but the danger has subsided.

  • 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.

  • Plans for a New Stedelijk Museum
    A very preliminary design proposal. A pre-sketch design. The vision of the architect. That was the type of language used yesterday at the media presentation to describe the winning design by Benthem Crouwel Architecten for the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam.

  • Fresh Facts, the Dutch submission
    Roemer van Toorn went to Venice Italy to NEXT the 8th architecture Biennial and wrote down his thoughts concerning the Dutch pavilion.

    ArchiNed.nl – news
    Felix Claus (Claus en Kaan Architecten, Amsterdam) shared his doubts candidly. When is a building good? Are you even doing it all right? Does it fit into the logic of the project? To him, doubt means having to choose, for there are tempting sirens re…
