In this video we discover Brandevoort, a newly built town near Helmond, the Netherlands. Brandevoort consists of multiple parts, of which the central area, called ‘De Veste’ is inspired by fortified towns as they can be found in the province of Brabant.
This town is dense and walkable, yet peaceful and surrounded by a stunning green landscape. It was also a commercial success, with many of the phases selling out with ease. Could this town be an example for developments in other countries, like the United States, England or other places?
The future, second phase of Brandevoort isn’t secured however; a bold, futuristic plan is proposed that does away with the time tested, successful principles that led to earlier success.
In this video you’ll hear all about this town, and as always we’d love to hear your opinions in the comments!
