Abstract

This thesis explores the development of scale in the architecture of the Amsterdam post offices by C. Outshoorn (1854) and C.H. Peters (1898), and of the urban context around the building. The urban development takes place incited by technical development and rapid expansion of the city. The scale of the architecture of the post office itself develops more eratically, due to the eclectic nature of the architects.
