Republica
Republica is conceived as a micro city as part of Buiksloterham’s transformation. An ensemble of six volumes encloses a network of outdoor squares, inspired by historic city centres, with a human scale and shared functions. The mix of housing, hotel, sports facilities, hospitality and work/living ateliers maximises crossovers between people and activities. In line with Buiksloterham’s circular ambitions, Republica uses a smart energy grid, recycled/upcycled facade materials which distinguish each volume and closed water loops.
