Unconstrained views towards water, a need for as much opened space as possible, a bright, airy environment and a unique design with use of natural materials, where inside-outside relation is blending into the surrounding were the primary desires of our client, whose vision influenced the designing path in the Monster Villa hidden in the dunes.

The working and learning environment of the future
Mecanoo architecten and Gispen are collaborating to explore the working and learning environment of the future, spaces that accommodate multiple activities simultaneously, without becoming generic. Diversity, personalisation and addressing the specific aims of different activities are central to creating environments where creativity, innovation and identity flourish, and where people can exchange ideas and inspire one another.
A 150 year old farmhouse located in the rural area between the nature areas of the Veluwe and the IJssel river has been renovated and expanded. The newly added pavilion represents modern rural architecture: it’s simple, practical, and eloquent.
In the design of the new Zalmplaat School, the expressive and soft building volume is equipped with two floors with rounded corners, creating an all-round soft shape. Colourful letters and strips in combination with wavy movements of the frontage make a characteristic and expressive building; a school with a familiar yet personal and distinctive expression, recognisable for the children, teachers and neighbourhood.
Keukenhof finally has a proper main entrance. Mecanoo designed an elegant gatehouse to welcome the large flows of, mainly international, visitors to the world famous gardens. A striking timber roof leans on two volumes, forming an impressive gateway to the park. The stepped roof structure of interwoven isosceles triangles provides shelter, whilst creating an ever-changing play of light and shadow.
