Mecanoo designs mixed-use development as "green artery" for Amsterdam

Dutch architecture studio Mecanoo has unveiled its design for Amstel Design District, a development in Amsterdam that will include housing, public outdoor spaces and a museum.
Six buildings are designed for the 80,000-square-metre project. While each one will be different in appearance, they will all have staggered forms that create pockets for outdoor "green retreats".
