 Abstract

The historic landscape is changing due to global warming. Valuable ecosystems are disappearing and have to be adapted or replaced in order to make the Dutch landscape future-proof. For this reason a new botanical research institute was proposed. The purpose will be the protection of local and global ecosystems along with providing research into new agricultural implementations. Next to this it will act as an extension and new entrance to Amsterdamse Bos through the construction of a bridge connecting Schiphol Corridor to Amsterdamse Bos, welcoming visitors, gardeners and researchers.
THE BAR[N] gives answer to the hypothetical question: what if the Dutch Cultural landscape and its philosophy were captured and frozen into the design of the Botanical Research Institute?
