a few words about the site

The De Vries van Heystplantsoen site has a strong natural character. Unlike its surroundings, it is not artificial and is a rare and powerful urban typology in Delft. It is an isolated site and its introversion is stressed by the plantation barrier on the periphery. Although there are a variety of entrances, they do not seem to be well defined, therefore access is limited and seems to only be used by locals as a transitional space. Once inside, the site seems to be connected with its surroundings by traffic noise, and although experientially the isolation quality is enjoyed by a few, it is lacking a programmatic definition to keep the (new) visitor interested and involved.
