  • Mens En Kosmos in Huygens' Hofwijck*
    Robert-Jan van Pelt Mens en kosmos in Huygens' Hofwijck* Inleiding Constantijn Huygens was een van de opmerkelijkste Nederlanders van de zeventiende eeuw. Als secretaris van stadhouder Frederik Hendrik gaf hij mede vorm aan de politiek van Holland in de Gouden Eeuw, als dichter leverde hij een belangrijke bijdrage aan de Nederlandse literatuur, als edelman virtuoso vervulde Huygens, heer van Zuylichem, een sleutelrol in de culturele contacten tussen Holland, Engeland en Frankrijk, en als vader bracht hij een zoon groot die door intellect en opvoeding was voorbeschikt een van de grootste geleerden van zijn tijd te worden. In dit essay zal een ander 'kind' van Huygens onder de loep worden genomen. Dit 'kind' is de tuin van Huygens' buitenhuis Hofwijck, dat is gelegen in de buurt van Voorburg (Zuid-Holland). Huidige plattegrond van Hofwijck Hofwijck zal worden besproken als een evenbeeld van Huygens: met hem ouder wordend en, hoewel door onbegrip verminkt, tot in onze tijd voortlevend.

  • The Randstad : Face and Form
    IFoU 2006 Beijing International Conference Modernization and Regionalism – Re-inventing the Urban Identity THE RANDSTAD : FACE AND FORM E. Brandes Faculty of Urbanism TU Delft, P.O. Box 5043, Delft, The Netherlands, *Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT: The Dutch poly-nuclear metropolis the product of urban design and policies of spatial planning over many years. The underlying landscape and the history of urban planning are the base of its current form and face. Now the different urban areas get absorbed in the new unity the Randstad. Like before a masterplan should be made at the higher scale, and on local scale guidelines and flexible realization plans. A plan which respects the existing cities and landscape, combined with an authority and a policy to realize it. The Netherlands have to continue its valuable tradition in urbanization. KEYWORDS: Randstad, a poly-nuclear structure by landscape and history, differentiation, policy of concentration, at the urban scale and the regional scale 1 INTRODUCTION The Netherlands are currently in the process of forming a metropolis. Nowadays about six million inhabitants are living in the relatively small area Holland (the western part of the Netherlands). [1] The urban area is made up of a number of ‘big’ cities, middle large towns and the open or partly urbanized landscape in between. This poly-nuclear constellation differs from that of Paris and Beijing, examples of cities, which mono-centrally spread them selves out over a whole region. This urban network is there for considered by Dutch planners as a metropolis, although quantatively it falls short of the real large cities of the world.
