I made this sketches for Special Economic Block. Its A0 size and its super detailed. Have a look to details.

Maxwan A+U, in collaboration with Crimson Architectural Historians, created a top down strategy to allow for a bottom up transformation of Tarwewijk, Rotterdam South, and, potentially, many lower income communities.

The major strategic error of Dutch and other urban renewal policies is that they focusonly on certain communities. This serves to create monocultural, dependent, poor neighborhoods. In Tarwewijk, this has resulted in a 20% vacancy rate. We turn this vacancy into an advantage.
