Brooklyn to Amsterdam

Brooklyn to Amsterdam


This dual-sized façade rotates from a classic Brooklyn brownstone to a vintage Amsterdam canal house.

These are two styles of architecture that I think are timeless and beautiful, and they share a lot of commonalities. New York was originally settled by the Dutch, and a lot of the city was built by descendants of Dutch immigrants, which might explain the similarities in architectural style.

I also really enjoyed contrasting the New York street scene (taxis and asphalt) with the Amsterdam street (cobblestones, bollards, and bikes.)
