De Zwarte Hond Architects- fmr. Theatre of Twente - Enschede, the Netherlands 2018
COMMISSION
De Zwarte Hond is a design agency for architecture, urban design and strategy with offices in Groningen, Rotterdam and Cologne (D), known for designing places, buildings and whole environments that are conceived, rather than created; Designing interwoven spaces defines them to the core.
This commission was to focus on the former Twentse Schouwburg theatre being located in a quiet residential area in the heart of Enschede and its emotional significance to the city. This beacon’s location was a bit difficult, cramped in between rows of buildings, but popping out above the rooftops.
Projects like these are valued assignments, because of the interdisciplinary teamwork involved and the opportunities it brings. As a visual artist in the field of architecture and urbanism, the expertise of 3D specialists is a place of learning.
