1 ‘Stimulating ambiance’ Creative people and companies are always on the lookout for an environment that is a bit different – a place where they can be pioneers of sorts. They draw inspiration from old churches, school buildings, factories and industrial sheds. This is no longer possible in the historic city center, where everything has been developed. In fact, a workspace in an old canal-side building is now seen as a status symbol. That’s not what we’re after. We want to project a sense of creativity and also have enough space to show the things we can do. We are keen to work in a place that fits in well with our vision: blazing a trail and discovering locations not yet chanced upon by others. Here we see so many opportunities to create studios and other ateliers as envisaged by us. In Stadhaven Minerva, we have constructed a robust building using a concrete modular system, but adjusted to our specific needs and kept somewhat rough to project a sense of power. We have an unobstructed view all around us, which provides us with light, fresh air and a feeling of dynamism. Stadhaven Minerva is the perfect place for us and is not so far away from the city center. At this location, we’re now also realizing buildings for other companies, which, just like us, are keen to experience a sense of freedom. Peter van Dijk Managing Director of Dedato ontwerpers en architecten Dedato designs buildings, websites, posters, books and brochures.
