Competition; Europan 7 Geuzenveld Amsterdam; Selected for Forum of Juries of Cities.

This scheme starts from the basic premise that it is better to add a new level of meaning to the existing city instead of demolitioning it and building anew. 

In this proposal the existing appartments are kept. The dwellings are enlarged so that they comply to todays needs and in a way that colonizes the difficult to maintain inner courts. 

In this way the city can grow in a sustainable manner.
