By making public what was previously inaccessible for defensive reasons, Serge Schoemaker has brought Fort Hoofddorp, located just south-west of Amsterdam, out of its isolation. The architect's design method can be best described as architectural editing, keeping the tone and tenor of the fort, completed in 1904, intact and strengthening its character wherever possible. As such, Schoemaker elucidates its 'story' while simultaneously expressing the essence of its architecture. His interventions and alterations, whether additions or removals, optimise the existing structures and landscape, freeing them from the original military purpose and imparting a universal significance.
