Abstract

In this thesis, the reasons for designers to settle in Philips heritage in Eindhoven is discussed. The question is twofold, as it aims to discover why designers settled in Eindhoven on the one hand and why they then decided to move into the former Philips buildings on the other. The answer is that it was a combination of circumstances that drove the designers to the city, but due to Eindhoven’s spirit as city of makers, it was always bound to happen. The reason for the designers to move into Philips buildings, is that many of these buildings were designer as a daylight factory, a typology which will be further elaborated on.
