A villa patchworkA residential area with 1600 dwellings is under construction in a former allotment garden complex and industrial estate in Amsterdam Noord. It has been designed in the tradition of the garden villages present in this part of the city. In contrast to the existing garden villages, the urban design scheme by Rudy Uytenhaak provides for spacious dwellings in a high-density development, and considerable attention is given to the car. De Bongerd, a garden village of the 21st century, is situated on Zijkanaal I and has a green character. On the edge of the development are tall apartment buildings. On small plots in the narrow, winding streets are urban villas containing two, three, four or eight dwellings. The various types of villas, designed by four different architects, are scattered as blocks over the area. |
