The Courthouse - Architecture for the Public Good

KAAN Architecten designed the stately yet inviting institution for public discourse through a collaborative DBFMO* contract overseeing the building's funding, construction, maintenance, and property management.

The Courthouse: Public Architecture is entirely produced and compiled by the building's architects. Through original essays and articles, they take us behind the scenes to unveil the Courthouse as the ultimate gesamtkunstwerk - both a project and a process. These in-depth analyses are visually documented by rich illustrations, construction photographs, and technical drawings.
