Majestic Living
Status, Security, Nature

All the buildings at Nonnenveld, Breda have different names. Het Chasse, Het Paleis, Het Bolwerk, Parkappartementen, De Wintertuin. Names with a connotation to other building but not in relation to the building itself. The architecture does not represent the typology the name suggests. It is as if the names try to hide the real nature of the building or what happens inside. The generic architecture in combination with the names does not show the typology the names represent or the ideas the inhabitants have of the street. How can I turn this around and show the happiness of the people inside the buildings to the outside of the street.

De Verlengde Willemsbrug is a border between the new and the old, the Utopian ideas for the rebuild and the destructive appearance of the gabber culture. Two totally different identity’s in the same public area. This makes the Schizophrenic power of Rotterdam.

I want to show the schizophrenic power of the city. The power of clashing culture, identity’s and architecture and a city who sometimes loses it’s connection with reality.

Poem used that interacts with the space around the bridge: Rondeau in vier dele by Antjie Krog

van uitvlug van skeidslyn
van skeidslyn as lyn tussen orde en chaos
van buitenste buite
van binne
