Noorderbegraafplaats Auditorium
Space for the future, that is what Borren Staalenhoef is really about. Buildings and urban design plans as spatial frames: walls, roofs, floors, streets and squares within and around which all manner of scenarios are possible. Robust but elegant so that they are durable and will age well. Urban design plans that offer a counterweight to the standard demolish-and-rebuild urban renewal operations because they allow and welcome modifications. Landscape designs that provide guidelines for introducing order and beauty into daily life. But above all, buildings that offer a large degree of freedom for living, working and enjoyment. Because once the building is finished, the master builders hand control to the users. It is this attitude that ensures Borren Staalenhoef a bright future (text by Kirsten Hannema).
