OverHolland 3

OverHolland addresses the relationship andinteraction between the building and the cityin the context of the Dutch urban landscape.To this end, the city is understood in itsmaterial manifestation, as an artifact con-structed of tangible elements such as build-ings and infrastructure. In this approach it isespecially the architectural conception of thecity as it emerges in various designs forthecity, whetherimplemented ornot,that is theempirical object of study and analysis. There-fore, the research that we present hereanalyses the city primarily as an ‘architecton-ic construction’.
