  • Design for coals
    Just a two-hour drive from Rotterdam is the Ruhrgebiet landscape and culture park, whose main attraction is Zollverein in Essen. With the completion of OMA’s conversion of the Coal Refinery and SANAA's new Zollverein School, the transformation of this former industrial site is starting to take shape.

    When the smelly and unhealthy mining industry disappeared from the Ruhrgebiet in the 1980s, the region was left to deal with heavily polluted land and high unemployment. The Internationale Bauaustelling (IBA) Emscher Park, which started in 1989, put …

    Trash is the inevitable result of mass consumption. Every stage in the journey from raw material to discarded product results in waste material. 2012 Architecten salvages construction material from this flow of waste.

  • 25 Informal kiloVolts
    Situated in the Lloyds harbour area of Rotterdam, this multi-company building for businesses and artists active in the media sector, designed by architect and Archined colleague Robert Winkel, is now almost complete. The staff at Archined have witnessed at close hand the ups and downs of the design and construction process of this '25kV building' as it is known. And we're just as proud as Robert, not to mention somewhat astonished, that the original, radical concept - a completely transparent facade containing glazed toilets and glazed kitchenettes - has survived unscathed through the jungle of officialdom and regulations.
    ArchiNed.nl – news
    The 25kV building is a former electricity control station, now renovated to house workspaces for (new) media companies and visual artists working with new media. The original building was little more than a blank concrete volume with heavy concrete f…
