Designs for schools repeatedly crop up in Hertzberger’s prodigious oeuvre and are, according to the architect, his favourite buildings. ‘Schools and cities’, he contends, ‘can be read in many ways and are challenging, inspirational and inviting’. Alongside a presentation of more than 30 of his completed schools and a number of unfinished ones, the publication features an essay by Abram de Swaan, who pays tribute to Hertzberger as a pre-eminently ‘sociological’ architect. Each building is documented through photographs, plans and explanatory texts.
