Gebiedsvisie omgeving gemeentehuis

Gebiedsvisie omgeving gemeentehuis · Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht · 2025 vision

A connected green and blue framework links parks, water, the town hall, cultural facilities and possible development sites. It provides a shared direction for future projects, walking and cycling, and climate resilience.

The design question

How can a town hall renewal become a catalyst for a greener and more connected civic centre?

My contribution

As part of the KuiperCompagnons team, I worked on the area vision for the town hall and its surroundings, bringing together public facilities, housing, public space, green connections and mobility. The vision draws on analysis and conversations with residents and stakeholders.

The value

A connected green and blue framework links parks, water, the town hall, cultural facilities and possible development sites. It provides a shared direction for future projects, walking and cycling, and climate resilience.
