Landscape and city merged into one overall composition This 500 hectare plan is situated on the river Vecht to the east of Amsterdam, between the towns of Muiden and Weesp. The scheme includes 2,350 houses and associated infrastructure, including the relocation and widening of the A1 motorway and the construction of an aqueduct for the motorway under the Vecht river, retail and social services, a new water system and a 330 ha strategic landscape project for recreation and nature. The design strategy conceives the area as totality, in which landscape and city are merged into one overall composition.
