Architect Herman Zeinstra’s work cannot easily be described by a single style. This results primarily from the fundamental questions he poses in each assignment and his refusal to settle for routine solutions. Brickwork is used in a practical manner, as a supporting tool, and the material enables Zeinstra to find alternative paths in architecture and construction, and to articulate a design that suits the contemporary situation. This impressive monograph of Zeinstra’s practice offers an honest and in-depth look at his methods and body of work. Besides an essay by Christoph Grafe and an interview, it features many built works in Amsterdam and other Dutch cities. Monograph on Amsterdam based architect and teacher Herman Zeinstra who is influential for a lifelong generation of Dutch architects and planners.
