SEED Architects was founded in Alkmaar NL in 2001. SEED Architects has extensive experience with a broad range of building types, clients and sectors like housing, offices, shopping centres, educational institutions, cultural centres, and health care centres and hospitals. The great variety of assignments and their success, give us the confidence and inspiration to solve complex architectural challenges. Good architecture follows from a good conceptual analysis. A good building is the sum of a strong idea, inspired detailing, and a sound realization. This starts a long time before the design and ends a long time after. The strength of SEED Architects lies in a systematic and analytica thinking, from which a creative, unique solution shoots. The name SEED carries a double meaning: it stands for the quest for the potential beauty hidden in the grain and maybe even more so for the manner in which SEED Architects pursues this quest. The working method is based on four successive principles: See, Extract, Envisage, leading up to a Design. With this approach, any (spatial) assignment is given by defining a specific (spatial) solution.
