  • New Nieuw Crooswijk
    No fewer than 1800 of the 2100 dwellings in the Rotterdam district of Nieuw Crooswijk are scheduled for demolition. The 'concept urban master plan' designed by West 8 was recently presented.

  • Brussels and Ground Euro (Part 2), a Spanish-Belgian mix
    ‘The Spanish are coming!’ In the sixteenth century such news would have prompted the citizenry of Brussels to raise the city ramparts, but today they are welcomed with open arms. The reason is simple. For they are bringing us something special: urban design, architecture, and the ‘cohesion’ in between.
    ArchiNed.nl – news
    Friday February 7 a decision was taken on 'Ground Euro.' From the invited proposals for 'the development of a global urban-design concept,' the winners turned out to be a Spanish-Belgian alliance: Aries, Idom, Moritz et Simon, L'Atelier, Jordi Ferran…

  • 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…

  • Dutch Toytown
    While the renovation of the neighbouring Rijksmuseum is held up as an example of quality development, the controversy surrounding the Stedelijk Museum is a prime illustration of how it shouldn't be done.

  • Westland forever
    The design assignment for the final round of the Urban Design category of the Prix de Rome was to draw up a development strategy for Westland. Last Tuesday the four final candidates presented their plans. Although the task was a fictitious one, the response was so imaginative that the intended discussion dealing with the necessity of restructuring large-scale agricultural areas in the Netherlands mainly concerned future possibilities for Westland.
    ArchiNed.nl – news
    Westland is an area of 14,000 hectares south of The Hague known mainly for its area of glasshouse horticulture, which accounts for 5,000 hectares. Pressure on the area is immense. Villages and towns in and around Westland are all seeking to expand to…

  • Mass Fix-Up, Mass Displacement, Mass Destruction or Mass Renewal? 2
    The Big Fix-Up is gathering momentum. Every post-war residential district seems to be subjected to a bout of renovating, restructuring and upgrading. Few people visit redevelopment districts just for fun, so it's all happening out of sight of the public at large. But luckily, the earliest results of renewal can now be viewed in comfort in the book De Grote Verbouwing and in the exhibition The Big Fix-Up at the Netherlands Architecture Institute.
    ArchiNed.nl – news
    There's been plenty of interest in individual projects, and some rather abstract studies have appeared, but The Big Fix-Up is the first broad survey of what's really happening in post-war residential neighbourhoods. Both the book and exhibition provi…

  • Greg Lynn recites from his own work
    Architects like to plan their use of time systematically. Le Corbusier divided his day into three parts - for painting, architecture and urban planning. Greg Lynn devotes 30% of his time to teaching, 30% to commercial commissions and 30% to research. No doubt it was during the remaining 10% that he wrote the sci-fi story he recited at the Berlage Institute. Jeroen Mensink reports.
    ArchiNed.nl – news
    Building ProcessThough even his complex forms cause many a mouth to drop open in wonderment, Greg Lynn's design method is every bit as interesting as the end result. In recent years, however, his pioneering work has shifted emphasis - spurred no doub…
