Poppies Buiksloterham
Poppies will thrive as a resilient community development and showcase for cross-laminated timber construction
Like the wild poppy, a pioneer species that thrives on challenging (urban) sites, Poppies will develop as a beautiful yet resilient community development. As a showcase for circular design, this experimental mixed-use development functions as a ‘Rainproof’ urban oasis – featuring an extensive roof garden and orchard – and a hub for upcycling and smart energy. An Open Building framework creates opportunities for residents to flexibly combine work and living, with a special focus on middle income rental properties and adaptable ateliers.
