Situated on a former military base in
Breda, The Netherlands, the Chasse Park Apartments by Belgium's
Xaveer de
Geyter Architects are a series of towers
that accentuate views and open space through their siting and
unique elevations. The master plan for the area was created by
the Office for Metropolitan Architecture, known more for architect
Rem Koolhaas' radical designs than their competent and innovative
urban planning. Here the plan includes additional residences
(700 total, 137 in the Chasse Park Apartments), a town hall,
a concert hall and plenty of parking for all uses. The plan features
buildings by well-known Dutch architects, including Erick van Egeraat
and OMA,
and landscape by West 8.
