In the coming years, the existing Fontys University of Applied Sciences campus in Eindhoven will be transformed from a closed-off island in the city to an inspiring educational environment. Barcode Architects, together with OKRA Landscape Architects and Hollandse Nieuwe interior architects, are responsible for the design of the new ambitious Fontys campus.
Barcode Architects proudly presents The Muse! Our striking residential tower is located in the up-and-coming Maritime District, enriching the Rotterdam skyline with a new, sculptural silhouette. The program is focused on comfortable inner-city living, with lots of space for social interaction, a lively plinth and features that enhance the living comfort of the residents.
Barcode Architects, KCAP and Lodewijk Baljon landschapsarchitecten design De Waalhoven Nijmegen
Barcode Architects, together with KCAP Architects&Planners and Lodewijk Baljon landschapsarchitecten were selected to create an urban vision for the dike zone in Nijmegen — De Waalhoven. Barcode Architects is also responsible for the design of multiple iconic towers within the plan.
Barcode Architects’ founder Dirk Peters: “With a coherent urban structure, the design makes the connection between the characteristic landscape of the northside of Nijmegen and the historic city center. City and nature, in combination with the unique quality that the surrounding river offers, creates a new living experience in the on the banks of the river Waal.”
Barcode Architects creates a new urban vision for the Utrecht Science Park
The Utrecht Science Park (USP) is currently undergoing a large-scale transformation. By emphasizing the combination of housing, education and business the campus will become more and more versatile. New, flexible buildings are being realized, and at the same time special attention is paid to the sustainable transformation of existing real estate. In early 2020, Utrecht University commissioned Barcode Architects to lead this transformation process and to develop a new urban development vision for the central and eastern area. Our assignment is to create a vision for a sustainable campus, focused on strengthening connections and creating space for interaction.
Barcode Architects’ partner Caro van de Venne: “The central boulevard of the Utrecht Science Park will become an urban environment that connects with the surrounding natural area and in which every space is unique. We have placed a strong emphasis on the quality of the outdoor environments as a place to meet, interact and recreate — with the aim of nationally and internationally strengthening the position of the USP as a vital region in Utrecht.”
Stay tuned for more news in early 2021.
Barcode Architects presents Fontys Campus Eindhoven
In the coming years, the existing campus Rachelsmolen of the Fontys University of Applied Sciences in Eindhoven will be transformed from a closed-off island in the city to an inspiring educational environment. A campus that puts the Fontys community at the heart and where cross-pollination between different fields lead to innovation, experimentation, and entrepreneurship. Barcode Architects, together with OKRA landschapsarchitecten and Hollandse Nieuwe interieur en architectuur, are responsible for the design of the new ambitious Fontys campus.
In providing a tailor-made approach to education, lies the strength of Fontys as a whole. The Fontys education is characterised by its small-scale, allowing every student to find its way easily within the larger institution. Barcode Architects has translated this core value to a design proposal where 24.000m² of new program is not organised in a vast singular building, but rather in three individual volumes. The new educational buildings are placed in harmony with the existing context. Together, they frame a welcoming, green public space where users can meet and recreate.
Barcode Architects proudly presents its striking residential tower The Muse
The Muse is located on the Wijnhaven in the up-and-coming Maritime District in central Rotterdam. The program is focused on comfortable inner-city living, with lots of space for social interaction, a lively plinth and features that enhance the living comfort of the residents.
With the design of The Muse, Barcode Architects was ahead of the curve. The Muse served as an inspiration in the development of the Rotterdam high rise vision, which was presented last year. By 2040, 50,000 homes are to be built in Rotterdam. Densification is a solution, but sky-high anonymous volumes, in which residents hardly know their neighbours or experience a sense of community, are a drawback. The focus on a resident community, the activation of the street and renewed urban living qualities make the design of The Muse a prime example for the realization of this vision. This makes The Muse the epitome of the new urban development flourishing in Rotterdam.
Barcode Architects is an international office for architecture, urbanism and contemporary design. The office is led by Dirk Peters and Caro van de Venne, along with a creative team of 70 professionals including architects, urban designers, and technologists. We create ambition-driven projects which revitalize and transform their surroundings. The resulting designs are highly site-specific, with an unexpected twist.
ranges from urban masterplans to mixed-use public buildings, large infrastructure projects, and high-end residential and office towers. Each project is the result of extensive concept-driven experimentation of function and form, bringing apparently “finished” designs to the next level.
