New presentation for the proposed Almelo City Hall in the Netherlands by Dutch Architects Meyer en Van Schooten. It certainly has the feel of the Babylonian styled hanging gardens minus the heavy stone work. Do you know of any city hall in the USA with this vast indoor atrium? Working for a Dutch city hall seems to be a dream job. The citizens of the Dutch town of Almelo have until February 6th 2010 to vote for or against it.

Concept for a tower by Dutch architect Anne Holtrop. We like the organic design which hints to the work of Finnish glass artist Alvar Aalto and German-French sculptor Jean Arp.
