Business Park Nieuw-Vennep Zuid

Johanna Günther Ed(s)

Nieuw-Vennep Zuid is a business park with a vision: an elaborate urban development plan, an ambitious landscape design and a first-rate architectural execution. This book portrays this exceptional business park, its buildings and the whole process of realization in word and image. Substantive articles throw light on the relations between local and national interests and the influence of these interests on the evolved residential and working landscape. The opportunities and the gaps in developing business parks in the Netherlands are discussed. Concluding that architecture and entrepreneurship in no way have to rule out one another, this book contributes largely to the discussion on business park policy in the Netherlands.
