A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Architects, structural engineers, and geotechnical engineers have collaborated to design a new type of residence for the Netherlands’ second-largest city, one that pairs Rotterdam’s tradition of open-air markets with an enormous arch structure that will enable residents to view both the city and the market below. Glass-clad cable net facades at either end of the arch will ensure that the markets remain protected yet inviting.
