- | === links === | + | === Design |
+ | This former schoolyard is enclosed within a block of 1920's architecture in an area within Amsterdam-West that is particularly devoid of green spaces. FoAM has joined initiator **Arnoud Hekkens** in opening this 1000m2 yard to the public. With local inhabitants under the guidance of some 5 experts, many designs were made and combined into a final design by Sanne Horn. The final design is inspired by the Ryad, the Middle Eastern palace gardens or paradise garden. | ||
