Java Island


Another part north of Amsterdam center is Java Island. Formerly a shipping and warehouse district for KNSM Shipping, it's now been reclaimed for residential buildings. Here you see much more modern design and a few nice shops including 90sq. meters, a destination for sneakerheads and style enthusiasts. Check the detail shot closely, it's bamboo reinterpreted in concrete, complex simplicity?
