Text description provided by the architects. LEVS architecten, in Amsterdam, has designed two remarkable buildings with 3,500 sqm of shops and 90 apartments. This plan is located where ten years ago a huge fireworks disaster blew away over 425,000 sqm of housing and factories in Enschede, eastern Holland. Since the disaster, the district Roombeek has been spectacularly rebuilt. The new shopping plaza has been erected in the heart of the district in the exact location where the destroyed former Grolsch Beer brewery used to be. The location’s remarkable past was the basis for LEVS’ design for the twelve-story building The Brewmaster and the five-story high The Granary.
