🚲 What's a possible link between #biking and #PVC? 🍃 Did you know how and why plastic is necessary for making our cities more and more #sustainable? The new #WonderfulVinyl Magazine is out: have a look! ➡ https://lnkd.in/dn_ety6
🚲 Approximately 40% of all traffic inthe City of Amsterdam consists of #cyclists. Such a consistent amount makes parking your bicycle in the inner city increasingly challenging. In collaboration with Ballast Nedam, the architectural studio ZJA I Architects & Engineers designed and constructed an underground bicycle parking facility beneath Kleine-Gartmansplantsoen, adjacent to #Leidseplein. ☀ This facility boasts wider footpaths and a higher #PVC ceiling (3.20 m) than typical bicycle storage areas. Enhanced with ample daylight, well-lit footpaths, and a perforated steel panel for improved acoustics, it offers a transparent and pleasant atmosphere. #UrbanDesign #SustainableTransport #InnovativeArchitecture The full story is available at https://lnkd.in/dn_ety6

Following a major redevelopment in 2010, the Volksparkstadion now holds 57,000 spectators under one roof, covered with PVC membranes.
