Amsterdam will get a new park dedicated to regenerative agriculture and locally grown food. In spring of 2025, we won the competition to design two buildings to house its cultural and agricultural functions, providing a platform for the Voedselpark Amsterdam to reach out to the city and beyond.

One building is dedicated to culture, gastronomy and teaching. The other building houses all agricultural amenities and makes them part of the visitor experience. A courtyard for festivities positions the Park as an actor in the events that make a city’s character.

The buildings are conceived as timber-frames insulated with straw bales and are designed to minimise technical installations for heating, cooling and ventilating, staying naturally tempered.

Our design evolves from the traditional ‘stolpboederij’ that characterises the landscape of Northern Holland with its expressive roofs and joyful facades.
