Rietveld Landscape - Trusted Subcultures N A P - Trusted Subcultures 'New Amsterdam Park (N A P) - Trusted Subcultures' is a cross-disciplinary research project initiated by RAAAF. It investigates the way in which philosophy, cognitive science and architectural design can jointly contribute to the city’s social fabric and a well-functioning public domain. It is funded by The Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO) in the form of a “Veni” grant awarded to Erik Rietveld (Harvard University). The project addresses several questions vital for a better understanding of our everyday living environment: A lot of our governments’ funds go towards the improvement of social cohesion, but what is “social cohesion” in the first place? The design takes an innovative and optimistic concept of the stranger as its starting point. The environmental possibilities for action enjoyed by others will sometimes be experienced as worth realizing oneself.

The centre will be clearly defined by a ‘green ribbon’ of proud trees. A large extension of shops, leisure, horeca, offices and houses will make the central area into a lively city centre. Lelystad was build in the late 1960’s and inherited the ideals of modernist urban planning. The project will go hand in hand with the redesign of the public space.
FORA IaN+ pointsupreme Center for Promotion of Science in Belgrade The Center for Promotion of Science consists of two elements; on one hand a dense vertical volume in organic form which houses most of the program. On the other, a square horizontal plane that runs along the middle of the full volume accommodates the permanent and temporary exhibition spaces and appears to float, giving the building an iconic and impressive image that suits its promotional purposes and future oriented character. The communal lobby space and the physical void space that accommodates it connect the ground to the sky and tie the entire building together; on the third level the science club, staff spaces and the planetarium are placed, offering exciting conditions for work, with views downwards towards the lobby and outwards towards the science park and the city. status: competition program: urban plan, science institute, science garden and landscape design area: Masterplan 11,66 ha, building 12.000 m2 location: Belgrade, Serbia
