Transformation of a school to a museum and restaurant, Arnhem, The Netherlands – 2010
Intrigued by this old school building and the potential for the future these ideas were created. Designed a grand cafe next to the existing building and created a museum in the old school.
The Corten Steel façade of the café will also be seen in the old interior of the school building. This way the authentic school gets a modern touch without destroying the existing building. The connection with the new café and the old school is made of glass. One façade of the existing building is in the new situation transformed into a complete glass façade to get a lot of daylight entrance and make it a more pleasant space to be in.
