Theunissen, Marianne et al. (Eds.)
A collection of images and texts documenting the development of Woonwerkpand Tetterode: an alternative residential housing project that began as a squat in 1981 and currently houses over 350 people. The project sees its residence being afforded greater freedom and autonomy than conventional housing complexes and thus exists as a space where artists, non-profit organisations and fledgling startups can thrive.
“The history of Tetterode shows how self-management leads to greater involvement that is not limited to the building, but also allows the building to play a social and cultural role in the neighbourhood and in the city. In short, a more meaningful way of living and working that many people are looking for.”
Text in Dutch only.
