Description
- The goal is to transform an unattractive and closed area into a green, open, high-density housing area.
- Create a meaningful place with its own identity for residents and visitors.
- A multidisciplinary analysis was conducted to understand the essence of the place.
- The plan includes raising the ground level, creating a spacious green inner area, and introducing linear elements.
- Landscape, urban planning, and architecture were integrated to achieve the transformation.
- Frij'hof features urban villas situated directly in a green courtyard with no roads.
- All addresses and front doors face the central green courtyard.
- The planning area is designed as an extension of Goffert park while maintaining its own identity.
- The green inner 'city garden' is fully planted with magnolia trees, designed by Buro Lubbers.
- Ground-floor apartments and houses have verandas and terraces facing the central green courtyard.
- There are no hedges or fences between public and private spaces, creating an open and connected environment.
