During Day and Night of Architecture, there are plenty of events where you can meet the architect, whether at home, in their studio or in one of their buildings.

Start your day at Enzo Valerio’s Studio Playtime, for a personal tour through his studio and home, build in a former post office. Or visit The Cabanon, a house of just 7m2, where architect Beatriz Ramo personally welcomes you. The design demonstrates that architecture is not defined by square metres, but by the richness of experience. At a different scale, Mecanoo architects present their plans for the former Unilever Factory, an impressive site on the bend of the river, where in the future a whole new neighbourhood will be built.

Also two unique nominees for the Rotterdam Architecture Prize, The Coolse Poort and Ferro Offices, will open its doors, with tours by the architects who transformed these postwar buildings into modern and sustainable offices. You will get the info about the history and transformation during a tour through the building.
