Book Synopsis
The book documents the most exciting projects in Amsterdam's current architectural scene, including floating houses, hotels in former bridge keepers' cottages, and carefully renovated cultural monuments such as the Felix Meritis or a bicycle garage under a harbour basin. The built showcase projects provide an insight into Amsterdam's urban resilience and innovative approaches to housing. Supplementary essays and interviews with the protagonists of architecture take a look behind the scenes of their ideas workshop. They focus, for example, on new forms of housing, adaptive architectural concepts and the rediscovery of the former port and commercial areas on the banks of the IJ. The contributions complete the picture of a vibrant and forward-looking architectural culture.
