The design project, that is part of the Heritage & Architecture graduation studio, is dealing with the transformation of the ensemble area ‘Plots in the wood’. This area lays in the centre of the former military complex of Hembrug in Zaandam. The design leads to transform this area to residential and commercial area, which is combined with local farming. The whole area should be preserved due to the unique landscape and the buildings characteristics. These buildings require an important way of protection since they still preserve their historical functionalities. They might not have their old potentials which is in the field of military, in order to preserve their historical values based on functionality, however considering its spectacular identity and unique elements, we have to protect this area. Creating environment with roots in circularity design can help spreading the circularity in other words de design reduce negative impact on environment and exciting buildings.
