This pocket-sized volume presents an overview of the most interesting architecture completed in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, in 2011. From large cultural projects like the conspicuous and striking EYE Film Institute, the Stedelijk Museum’s renovation and the redevelopment of the National Maritime Museum, to examples of innovative craftsmanship, for instance, the combined library and residential building in the Indische Buurt, a block of flexible-use spaces called ‘Solid 11’, by Tony Fretton Architects, and the IJburg College, which combines a school, sports hall and housing in one building. An essential guide to new architecture in the Dutch capital.
