Bicycle parking De Snelbinder is the first project in a series of buildings that， in the coming years， will be part of the renewed city centre of Nieuwegein (the Netherlands). The buildings site is a place of contrasts. The building’s volume is part of the industrial face. The colored facade of expanded metal creates a robust， light-absorbing volume. The expanded metal is used in such way that the garage from the outside appears to be a massive volume; the inside， however， is light and transparent. Specific parts of the building like the entrance and the roof are part of the public face. Polished white metal accentuates the entrance， lighting up the public space. The green roof provides a visual garden from the entrances of the surrounding housing.
