Design :  Within the masterplan, O'Donnell + Tuomey were commissioned to design one of the urban blocks (Field 5) comprising cinemas, shopping and housing. The cinemas are accessed from a new cultural square shared with the existing theatre and future local library. Shopping is organised around a new pedestrian square with houses and apartments grouped around roof gardens above the shops. The scale and material of the building is based on analysis of the persistent characteristics of Delft as a city of houses.
