ICOON
The ICOON cluster forms part of the central plan for the Vathorst quarter in Amersfoort. The programme comprises a school for secondary education combined with a branch of Schools in Art, and includes a local theatre, library, day-care centre, and a sports facility. These special functions will help the ICOON become the area’s future cultural heart. The building consists of several volumes that house the main functions. Between these volumes lie the traffic zones, and the whole is capped by a meandering ‘plaza landscape’.
