The Caribbean in Houten South. The houses of "De Goede Reede", as the project is officially called, were designed by architect Hans Been and realized in 2005 by NCB Projectrealisatie. Project developer NCB mentions three places that served as examples for the project: a fishing village in Norway, Willemstad (Curaçao) and Marken (the Netherlands). Architect Hans Been: “At the time, we were commissioned to design something at this location. At first that was a bit along the edge of the pool. It was not an island back then, but along the bank of the lake, ”says Hans Been. "Then the idea arose to really have something connected to the water, so an image that has to do with a fishing village." |
