Allard Architecture is a full service, Amsterdam based architecture studio.
Located in the heart of Amsterdam's city centre, Allard Architecture is deeply rooted in a place rich in historical significance. Our studio maintains a profound respect for the historical buildings that surround us, each with its own captivating story to tell.
Situated in this unique environment, we embrace the challenge of seamlessly blending the old with the new. Our designs pay homage to the historical legacy of our city while simultaneously pushing the boundaries of innovation. This dynamic juxtaposition inspires us to craft spaces that respect the past while shaping the future.
Physical modelling
We frequently utilize physical models in our projects as they offer a unique advantage in conveying the essence of our designs. From simple form study models to intricately detailed 3D laser-cut models, we harness the power of physical representations to ensure our design concepts are translated with precision and clarity.
Responsible Approach
We advocate for a responsible approach by revitalizing historical structures and actively pursuing eco-conscious design solutions. Our dedication extends to incorporating innovative, environmentally friendly materials and practices to minimize our ecological footprint.
Digital Modelling
Our office primarily relies on digital 3D modelling to achieve highly detailed and easily communicable technical drawings and design representations. Depending on the project's scale, we may also incorporate Building Information Modelling (BIM) and use this to coordinate services together with appointed consultants. For larger renovation projects, we employ point cloud technology to capture and recreate the existing 3D environment, ensuring precision in our design work going forward.
Historical Studies
Collaborating closely with historical preservation specialists, we breathe new life into historical structures while preserving their unique legacies. Our restoration research encompasses investigating and analysing a buildings history, mapping the historical significance of the building, to colour and material studies, giving old buildings a fresh lease on life while paying homage to their history.
Interior Design
For specific projects, we work on both the architectural design and the interior, whether it's for a new build or a renovation project. We deeply recognize the importance of interior work in preserving a building's essence and character and tying the design together.
