BORNEO DOCK COMPLEX | Mateo Arquitectura
26 HOUSING UNITS IN AMSTERDAM Amsterdam / Netherlands / 2000

The complex should be understood not from the sequence of its elements, but from their interrelationship. In such a beautiful and unique place, surrounded by water on three sides, the project strives to create an impression of openness, distance and lightness. The complex should not appear hard, compact and massive, in the manner of a permanent protective dyke, but seeks, rather to open itself up and- relatively speaking- to melt away.
