Nuno Fontarra on finding inspiration and the significance of multidisciplinary arts at Saadiyat Cultural District
Rotterdam's iconic Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen moves forward with Mecanoo’s ambitious renovation plans
Architecture Urbanism Landscape Interior Restoration We design primarily for people, construct spaces that are relevant to place, and forge connections that give a building purpose. This has remained consistent, underlying values to Mecanoo's practice over the past four decades.
Taoyuan Station Taoyuan, Taiwan As a pivotal initiative within the two-phase masterplan, Taoyuan Station is set to emerge as the city's central axis. Located in the old city center, the new Taoyuan Station is a large, covered plaza encompassing commercial spaces, a metro, a bus station, and underground railways. International Quarter London North London, United Kingdom Mecanoo has been working with Hadley Property Group as the lead architect to design the International Quarter London North at Stratford’s Town Centre, London. Between the six new stepped-tower designs, the development will feature new public spaces and amenity areas, facilitating integration into the surrounding built environment. Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen Rotterdam, Netherlands Mecanoo's design for the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen embodies vision and craftsmanship. The design focuses on five main principles: A welcoming entrance, improving logistics, enhancing the museum routing, restoring the national monuments Van der Steur, Bodon, and Henket buildings and connecting the museum with the city and the Museum Park. Macau Central Library Macau, China While clearly a contemporary structure within a traditional context, the new Central Library will provide a forward-thinking platform for influencing its surroundings. The uniform skin wraps the library volume and opens up like a book page to the main entrance facing the Tap Seac square. De Nederlandsche Bank Amsterdam, Netherlands More than 50 years after its opening in 1968, De Nederlandsche Bank (DNB) has become technically dated and unsustainable. Our multidisciplinary design team sought solutions for the transformation of the building that respect and enhance the original design, while meeting very high sustainability ambitions. Natural History Museum Abu Dhabi Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates Mecanoo designed the Natural History Museum Abu Dhabi to resonate with natural rock formations, reflecting the museum’s goal of improving understanding of and engagement with the natural world. Every element of the design uses geometry as an overriding theme, with pentagonal shapes resembling cellular structures. Havenziekenhuis Redevelopment Rotterdam, Netherlands The former Havenziekenhuis in Rotterdam is being transformed into a residential complex. The project includes the renovation of the hospital’s historic main building and the construction of two residential towers flanking it. This ambitious development will provide 380 homes and a range of community facilities. European Investment Bank Kirchberg, Luxembourg The departure point for the design of the new European Investment Bank (EIB) is the connection between the green valley north of the site and the urban European administration quarter to the south. The building and its exterior public space express the fundamental values of the European Union and the EIB: respect for human dignity and human rights, freedom, democracy, equality and the rule of law.
