Historic Solids/ Accommodating change
The case of Klinisch Ziekenhuis in Amsterdam
MSc Research and Design thesis. [2015]The “Solids” in Amsterdam, appeared in 2010 as
promising buildings that can house infi nitely chang-
ing functions. The goal of this project, is to test to
what extend the Solid concept is applicable to his-
toric buildings. The design proposal is concentrated
on a specifi c context in the Binnenstadscampus in
Amsterdam. ‘’Historic Solids’’ aim to be a realistic
project that can serve as a new design fi eld for
further investigation and experimentation.

Historic Solids / Accomodating change
The case of Klinisch Ziekenhuis in Amsterdam
Academic project: Design thesisJune 2015Studio: Heritage and Architecture/ Heritage and HousingMain tutor: Lidwine Spoormanse-mail: [email protected]
The changes that today societies are facing lead to a more customer oriented architecture and the need for
more fl exible solutions in order to attract different groups, became more imminent. Designing for fl exibility
means intentionally providing as many future decision opportunities as possible. The primary intention of the
graduation project was to integrate those fl exible housing design solutions which are appropriate in historic
monuments, in order to fulfi ll the demands for urban housing and the customer orientated architecture. Af-
ter analyzing the fl exibilities found in the canal houses of Amsterdam, the modern Movement’s architecture,
the Open Building principles and the Solids in Amsterdam, one of the most general results was that build-
ings that were originally not conceived as fl exible where at the end the most adaptable buildings. The cho-
sen case study of the Klinisch Ziekenhuis is a representative example of the Binnehasthuis complex, to show
how the Solids principle can be integrated in historic monuments. The Klinisch Ziekenhuis had most poten-
tial and ability to accommodate fl exible housing units. Taking into consideration the architectural and cultur-
al qualities of the monumentwwww my responsibility was to preserve and enhance the historical appearance
of the building. This was translated into minimum design interventions on the outside showing aesthetic ap-
preciation to several facades and restoring them to a pristine condition to preserve the overall character of
the conservation area.The new intervention are unfolding from the inside to the outside with less intervention
1
on the outside enhancing special characteristics of the building’s DNA such as the vaulted fl ooring con-
struction and the logic of the pavilion typology. The only new volume that was added on the North side
of the building tries to achieve high level of compatibility in the streetscape but in a more contemporary way
and it is related to the scale of the adjoining heritage buildings. The intervention occupies one of the open
green spaces of the complex and furthermore has detrimental impact on the articulation of the most prom-
inent facades and the Rotunda. From the beginning it was seen as a constructed shell which with sever-
al alterations could offer fl exibility to the tenant, who decides on the size, confi guration and use of the space.
The participation of the tenant in the design process is also essential. Each one chooses the confi gura-
tion of the apartments, how many square meters they want to rent and the interior style of their preference.
Several examples are chosen to be shown below.The Solid’s ‘’openness’’ and incompleteness allows the tenant to choose
how they want to complete it in order to fi t their needs. It is a work in progress. The Solids idea is for the tenants to rent
and fi nance the design of the interior according to their needs and the owners to take care of the structure and façade.
As Graham Kelly said, “A sustainable building is not one that must last forever, but one that can easily adapt to change”.
Concluding the achievement is the creation of fl exible housing solutions in combination with multi-
ple functions, following a strategy that understands the dynamics of historic inner cities that fi ts today’s life.

contemporary techniques

The current situation determined the need to handle the ancient monument as active elements of the
city, to avoid the isolation of the historic sites and its residences and the rate among their conciliation.
The proposal concerns a small peninsula where the ancient city of Nea Pafos was built during the Hellenistic
period in the 4th century BC. Some of the monuments that have survived in the area are: part of the Hellenistic
walls, the Hellenistic theater, the Roman Odeon and the Asclepion, three Roman houses with rich mosaic fl oor
decoration, , the Christian basilica of Our Lady Chrysopolitissa and Limeniotissa and the basilica at “Toump-
allos” fortress of “Forty Cologne”, the medieval castle, Latin Cathedral and a Gothic church near Chrys-
opolitissa, the medieval church of Agia Kyriaki which succeeded the Chrysopolitissa and Fraggades baths.
Through my thesis I attempted to give the citizens and visitors the chance to experience the city’s histo-
ry. My proposal was the revival of the ancient urban tissue that no longer exists, by planting the ancient
blocks in an attempt to re-connect and consolidate the archeological sites. Each block was planted with
different kind of vegetation in order to indicate their previous function. (Ancient market, housing, public
buildings etc.). The morphology of the museum was nothing more than a crooked line connecting the ar-
cheological sites at each end. Therefore, the whole urban environment becomes an exhibit of the museum.
The new museum covers an area of approximately 16,600 m² and includes exhibition spaces, administrative
offi ces, restaurant, conference room, library and all those additional areas that serve the above purposes. It
is a composite construction of reinforced concrete and steel elements that create a semitransparent struc-
ture. The exhibition areas have limited openings, to better highlight the exhibits, creating solid surfaces
interrupted at various points, allowing the intermediate contact with the outside. All the external surfaces
are covered with corten copper, a material linked to the Islands history, since Cyprus in Latin means copper.
The Panagia Chrysopolitissa church was built in the 13th century over the ruins of the largest Early Byz-
antine basilica. Originally the church was seven–aisled, but later was reduced to fi ve aisles. The fl oor
of the basilica was covered with colorful mosaics, some of which are still preserved. This case study is
a sample of how the other monuments of the archeological park can be addressed. After research and
study through survey, in order to make the plans of the church a partial restoration design with contem-
porary techniques (rammed earth) is proposed. This would will give visitors the opportunity to interact
and get a clearer image of the ancient monument. In order to protect the areas which are covered with
mosaics the platform follows a specifi c path and it’s been raised above the level of the surrounding area.

RESIDENCE in Patra Greece / family house

3Academic project: Design project/HousingFebruary 2006Studio: Architectural Design Main tutor: Nicolas Travasaros (Divercity Architects)e-mail: [email protected]
The assignment during the second academic year of my Architectural studies at the University of Patras was
to introduce a residence, set in a plot in the historic city center of Patras in Greece. The initial concept was
to design a residence for a small family (was going to live there) and (on the ground level) a working space
on the ground level were an inside communication with the residence (was also going) to be introduced.
Specifi cally a common vertical garden is introduced along with a metal staircase which connects the two
fl oors and therefore the offi ce and the dwelling. This resulted in the design of a house articulated along the
circulation corridor which performed as an unfolded ribbon. This corridor begins from the main entrance
on the street level follows an upward route to the fi rst fl oor and ends up on the master, two storey bedroom.
Different volumes interlocks on this circulation axis and each one represent a different function starting
from the bedrooms, the bathroom, the kitchen, living and dining space and at the end the master bedroom
as mentioned above. Each volume has different materialization, size and confi guration which refl ects the
organization of the functional zones. The way the volumes are positioned leave on open space between the
street level to the backyard with the swimming pool, challenging the distinction between public and private.

Art Residency / Religious Heritage Rotterdam
Transformation of Blijdorpkerk

The project concerns a conference and multifunctional hall near the city of Pafos. According to the owner, the
hall must have the ability to split and transform for events like cocktail receptions, wedding dinners, concerts,
conferences etc. Therefore we designed a hall with care and attention, in order to satisfy these needs. The
building includes a fl exible and dividable 1000 sq. meters multifunctional hall with acoustic design solutions.
It also includes a bar, professional kitchen, storage, offi ces, public toilets and a bridal suit. The main hall has a
permanent dialogue with the external spaces through the glazes facing the see view the pool and the gardens.
The building consists of a composite structure from reinforced concrete for the main structure and steel
traces for the roof structure, to avoid internal columns. The lighting design led to a solution that ensured the
required acoustic of the hall. For this purpose a special metal structure was designed for a special delivery
from France of the honey comp paper surface that was suspended from there. On the outside the material-
ization found are: fare faced concrete, metal frames, wooden surfaces and local stone. As a young architect
being part in the realization of this project was a big challenge for me. My responsibilities began from the
early stage of the design, the cooperation with all the involved associates (electrical engineers, civil engi-
neers, mechanical engineers), led to the technical detailing, rendering and fi nalized on the site supervision.

The challenge of this project was to redesign the Pathe cinema in order to improve and elim-
inate the problems of the current situation. It represents a holistic approach to both architec-
tural and climate design. The use of the louvers on the East façade might be a simple solu-
tion however in combination with the climate concept it can provide a good indoor climate and
minimize the energy loss. The fact that it is an operable solar shading system can increase
the shading effectiveness while it offers the opportunity for distinctive architectural impact.
The shading louvers as mentioned before are made of double curved solid polycarbonate sheets,
laminated together with dichroic fi lm in-between, as a shading layer. The louvers are operat-
ed by linear actuators through a system of levers and push rods. The dichroic fi lm is perforated,
creating an attractive diffuse light and allowing a degree of vision. In order to sunshade properly
and prevent glare, the translucent fi lm is altered by introducing a white opaque sub layer which is
visible from the interior. During the summer, the louvers are positioned with a slope between 30˚-
45˚ down depending on the time and month. During winter the louvers are programmed to a hor-
izontal position in order to allow the penetration of sunlight. This differs during very bright days
where the position of the louvers in front of the offi ces fl uctuates in order to prevent daytime glare.

The residence was developed as a three-storey house in Konia a North East suburb of Pafos. The house is
located on a hill overlooking the sea on the Southwest. The form and main volume of the building adapts
to the 25% slope of a corner plot and the contours of the land, allowing access from different locations
of the plot for the owners and their visitors. The ground fl oor level comprises the parking area, a small
independent studio and storage rooms. The fi rst fl oor consists of the kitchen, living and dining room and
an offi ce. The bedrooms (3) and the laundry are situated on the third fl oor. The main entrance is placed on
the west side of the plot, while the living areas are open towards the sea view on the southwest and the
back yard side with the pool on the northeast. The living areas were designed in order to take advantage
of the local microclimatic factors, to provide sun shading and the articulation of an open plan interior. The
volume of the house seems to be split into several distinctive volumes which refl ects the organization of
the functional zones. At the same time it maintains a discreet volumetric appearance. The way the volumes
integrate allows for various heights differentiations in the interior. The main materials used were stone
for the cladding, concrete and aluminum. These materials and the white color of the plastered volumes
were selected according to their ability to resist the intense sunlight and protect from the strong winds.
