Oosterhof Rotterdam Development
The concept for the ‘community or emptiness’ was developed as an economic idea. The two sides of the building consist of a number of floors (change 3 to 4) of which the height of these floors were reduced locally, so more M2 arises.

The bridge is constructed from concrete in combination with glass ‘dots’. These units, which were specially developed by a supplier of glass and light, are made entirely of glass through which daylight travels and makes the space lighter under the bridge during daytime.

House Prototype
The research for Palladio Feedback started with participation in a contest for a house. The theme of the contest was ‘elementary’ building. Elementary building can be looked at from different angles. It could be a cheaper way of building (more economical). Or maybe the word ‘elementary’ was to mean the opposite of complex.

Rotterdam Architect Practice Information
Architect studio based in Holland.
Hans Moor Architects is an architectural practice based in Rotterdam led by architect Hans Moor. This Dutch architect firm is known for its conceptual and sustainability‑oriented approach that explores community, environment, and the evolving role of architecture in society.
Design Philosophy & Focus
Hans Moor Architects works with ideas that go beyond conventional building design, emphasizing sustainable living, emotional space, and integrated environmental systems. The practice investigates new ways of imagining built environments that respond to climate change, community needs, and technological shifts, often framing architecture as a holistic experience connecting water, energy, food, and information.
A conceptual framework emerging from the studio is called “Smart Hood Architecture,” which envisions sustainable, self‑supporting neighborhood systems that produce their own energy, water, and food while facilitating social interaction and resilience.
