The two buildings are designed to place these disparate parts in relation to each other. Their size and position allow them to mediate between the existing old and new buildings. Together, they form a composition of parts that maintains a somewhat unstable equilibrium.

i29 Interior Architects. Tribal DDB Office. Amsterdam. Netherlands

Patricia García - May 22, 2015. 09:36

The need to provide good acoustics in open rooms coupled with a desire to offer a single image to the office led the architects to use felt as the main material. The option of covering ceilings and partitions with this material was also extended to include the furniture and the lighting such that the interior has become a space with new-found character, given a special sensory perception by the texture of the felt and its sound-absorbing properties.

The Whale is one of the three meteorites that mark the area. Within the same footprint as a 'Berlage block' (50 x 100 m) in Amsterdam-Zuid, a programme twice as large had to be realised, with an optimum amount of sunlight and a maximum vista for all the houses.

Limited resources created an opportunity to set up a temporary office space in a former newspaper office. The architects bought second-hand furniture on eBay and sprayed this, as well as decorative elements and part of the surfaces of the premises, with environmentally-friendly polyurea spray creating a sort of staged spaces for the different work areas.

NL Architects. Notweg Garage. Amsterdam. The Netherlands

Patricia García - October 15, 2014. 10:05

The temporary reuse of this car showroom and garage, designed in 1962 by H.A.M. van den Berg, does not intervene on the existing enclosure. A set of autonomous volumes have been inserted inside the structure which do not interfere with the facade in order to preserve to the maximum the openness of the two floors of the building. The enclosures added to distribute the workshops are timber and can be easily be distinguished from the materials of the original building. Easy assembly has meant tw.
