Helmond Station Building, Netherlands

Station Helmond

Design: studioSK, Movares

How to create a meaningful station environment in an era in which the classical station typology is evaporating? Modern travelling, being almost immaterial, has become ‘traveling light’: no need to buy tickets anymore, paying with your cell phone, high frequent intensities of train systems preventing you to wait for long.

Spordtgebouw in Dordrecht Sports Facility

Spordtgebouw Dordrecht

Design: NL Architects. Spordtgebouw is a combined sports facility for three separate schools in the so-called ‘Leerpark’. Traditionally, individual schools have their individual gymnasiums. A higher degree of collectivity of course enhances complexity but sharing also creates added value. During the day the building is dedicated to the schools, but in the evening and weekends it is open to everybody.
