The project is located in the Binnengasthuis area In Amsterdam. This part of the city of Amsterdam houses a mixture of buildings and architecture styles, a rarity where many famous Amsterdam architects have contributed to. The spatial structure of this part of Amsterdam is unique, the location is the result of a layered construction in which the buildings have been fitted in combination with green structures ( courtyards, streets and squares ). The project is a renovation of 80s social housing building in the heart of the binnengasthuis area. With my design I wanted to create programmatic social diversity that could be also reflected in the architectural image through a variety of forms, materials and facade elements in a social housing block of the 1980s which is lacking of these qualities.
