The atmosphere is dominated by the flows of movement in different layers, at the moment it’s not a place for long time staying. Pedestrians from the central station en from the Provenierswijk have to cross a lot of obstacles on their way.

Introducing a building block to improve the qualities of the provenierswijk. A good ending of the stationssingel (01). Ending of the building block (02). Visual contact with the station and square, the gate to the city center. transition of building hights between city center and provenierswijk.

Connection between CONTEXT, EXTERIEUR AND INTERIOR.
Not the city penetrates trough the building, but from the interior the choice can be made to explore the provenierswijk. The pedestrian can`t see what is happening inside of the building.
