Redeveloping Neglected Maritime Heritage
Design strategies for the adaptive reuse of a Shipyard, transforming industrial heritage into a resilient public space
This project proposes to reconnect the hidden, neglected maritime heritage of Sliedrecht with the public realm through spatial, material, and narrative-based design strategies. It is part of the Heritage & Architecture studio, with a focus on transforming maritime heritage into publicly accessible spaces that reinforce local identity and landscape memory.
Located across the Biesbosch, the Delta Shipyard and adjacent watertower embody the layered history of Sliedrecht’s shipbuilding legacy. Through three key strategies—preservation and adaptive reuse, material reuse and sustainability, and storyline and interpretation—the project aims to revive the site without erasing its traces of labor, erosion, and change. Formerly fragmented and inaccessible, the site is reimagined as a continuous, layered landscape where the historical and contemporary overlap through careful spatial interventions.
Historic fragmentation gives way to a layered, accessible environment where memory and use co-exist. By designing with and through the remnants of the shipyard, the project allows the community to re-engage with their maritime past, transforming a former industrial enclave into a collective space for leisure, culture, and reflection, rooted in both site and story. ...

Amsterdam's Journey
Changing the urban fabric
The urban history of Amsterdam has changed a lot over the past centuries, with the city’s streets and waterways serve as conduits of transformation. From its modest origins amidst peat bogs to its emergence as a bustling hub of commerce and culture, Amsterdam’s story is intricately connected with the evolution of transportation.
At the heart of Amsterdam’s narrative lie its iconic canals, once vital arteries of trade that shaped the city’s growth and identity. The evolution of transportation modes across centuries, from the rhythmic clatter of horse-drawn carriages to the seamless efficiency of electric trams tell a story about the urge to adaptability and change. Amsterdam’s landmarks, like Central Station, emerged as symbols of progress against a backdrop of changing urban landscapes forever. Progress is never without challenges. Tensions between modernization and preservation arise as ambitious projects like the Ring of Amsterdam (A10) reshape neighborhoods, leaving behind scars that highlight the delicate balance between evelopment
and heritage.
By examining historical maps, paintings, and archival records, information has been gained on how transportation has shaped Amsterdam’s urban fabric, illustrating the city’s dynamic evolution over time. Transitioning from growth and expansion to integrating car traffic into Amsterdam’s existing urban landscape, thereby enhancing accessibility throughout the city. ...
