temporary
installation
client: Municipality of Amsterdam
project team: Jörn Schiemann, Otto Weyers
status: commission (2009), discontinued |
The temporary installation anticipates on a footbridge to be built
in the near future, as described in the urban masterplan ‘Framework
Lelylaan’. The construction consists of two layers of profiled
sheets with a layer of climbing plants in between. The inner sheet
is made out of steel, retaining the soil, while the outer sheet is
made out of translucent polycarbonate, interfering with vegetation
and steel wall. The upper surface of the installation is part of the
entrance zone of the WestCord Fashion Hotel and can be used as an
exterior lobby. |
