Escher Museum: adviceThere is a desire in The Hague to create a new Escher Museum. The existing museum, 'Escher in Het Paleis', has reached the limits of its growth at its current location, with about 190,000 visitors a year. The idea is to locate a new museum in the former American Embassy, an iconic design by Marcel Breuer. Soda has been asked by the Escher Collection Foundation and the Art Museum to advise on the conceptualisation and on the defining of the qualitative goals.Miffy MuseumThe revamped Miffy Museum opened to the public on 21 June 2023. Soda was responsible for designing the renovation and the new areas. Earlier, in 2016, Soda completed the transformation of the Dick Bruna House into the Miffy Museum. The Miffy Museum subsequently became such a enormous success in terms of visitor numbers that Soda was asked to design both an extension and a redesign of the existing museum. City Hall UtrechtSoda is consulting on the use of the area of Utrecht City Hall accessible to the public. The city hall needs to become livelier: a 'House of the City' where the people of Utrecht can participate in political, educational and cultural activities. This places demands on the already frequently renovated nationally listed monument. Singer Laren > exhibitionFrom 12 September 2023 till 8 Januari 2024, the exhibition 'LA GRANDE BLEUE' was on show at Singer Laren. Soda was responsible for its design. 'LA GRANDE BLEUE' tells the story of painters who, from 1870 onwards, were drawn to the Mediterranean Sea to explore new artistic directions.Museum GoudaFor Museum Gouda, Soda conducts a design study which started in late 2022. It focuses on making the monumental complex more sustainable and improving accessibility. Soda is also investigating how the museum can move away from using natural gas. Zaans MuseumSoda conducted in 2023 a design study for the Zaans Museum. The rationale here was twofold: a repositioning of the museum in relation to the adjacent Zaanse Schans; and looking into the sustainability and renovation of the building. Dortmunder U Since 2017, Soda has been working on various assignments for the 'Dortmunder U'. This former brewery houses several cultural institutions including the Museum Ostwall. Soda examined how the identity of the Dortmunder U as a whole could be strengthened. Museum OstwallThe Dortmunder U (DU) is a striking landmark building in Dortmund. After reinforcing the identity of the DU as a whole with a combination of interventions, Soda renovated the Museum Ostwall and the joint exhibition hall, both located in the DU. Museum Ostwall > exhibitionsAfter Soda renovated the Museum Ostwall - located in the Dortmunder U (DU) - as well as the joint exhibition space of the DU, Soda designed (and is designing) several exhibitions for the museum, including 'Flowers!' (2022) and the new collection exhibition, 'Kunst -> Leben -> Kunst', which opened on the 30th of April 2023.Museum für Kunst und Kulturgeschichte > exhibitionSoda created the design for the new collection exhibition ('REMIX') for the Museum für Kunst und Kulturgeschichte (Dortmund) which opened February 2023. Municipal Museum SchiedamIn May 2022, the Municipal Museum Schiedam reopened. Soda was, together with Bordewijk/De Adviseurs, responsible for the design and the renovation. Exhibition halls, circulation areas and visitor spaces were renewed and adapted to highest museum requirements within the possibilities of the building being a national monument. Netherlands' Photo MuseumPrior to the decision to move the Netherlands' Photo museum (Rotterdam) to a new location, Soda created for the current location Las Palmas a new layout for the entrance area, routing, exhibition spaces and ancillary functions. Textile MuseumThe Textile Museum (Tilburg) has ambitious renovation plans. Mecanoo and ABT Engineers have been invited to submit an explorative design. Formerly, together with the museum, Soda developed in 2022 a vision paper on the functional, logistical and fundamental opportunities.Open Air Museum > Craft WorkshopSoda transformed the former entrance building of the Dutch Open Air Museum into a 'Crafts Workshop': a multifunctional space where visitors can learn about crafts by experimenting with them themselves. In April 2022, the Crafts Workshop was officially opened.​​​​​​​Dutch Open Air Museum > exhibitionSoda designed in 2021 the exhibition 'Makers in the Picture' for the Dutch Open Air Museum in which contemporary craftsmen are in focus. Centraal Museum > redesign Soda successfully carried out the redesign - including research and concept - of the Centraal Museum Utrecht (design by Soda+). The Centraal Museum was nominated in 2018 for the EMYA, the European Museum of the Year Award. Important elements were the connection of the building to the city, the integration into the environment, the visitor routing, multifunctional spaces, the entrance/shopping area, the catering and the garden.Centraal Museum > squareFor the Centraal Museum Utrecht, Soda developed a system whereby façade windows were made suitable for displaying video art. In addition, Soda designed a flexible pedestal for presenting artworks in the Nicolaaskerkhof, including matching seating furniture.Centraal Museum > hospitalityIn anticipation of the redesign, Soda designed a museum cafe (2011), a gaderobe (2010) and a temporary entrance and museum shop (2010).Afrika Museum Soda developed in 2019 for the Afrika Museum a preliminary design for the entrance area, ticket office, cloakroom, shop, café and the adjacent exhibition spaces. Furthermore, Soda renovated several exhibition rooms in the oldest part of the museum. Museum Oud AmelisweerdIn 2016 the 'EU Prize for Cultural Heritage/Europa Nostra Awards' in the category ‘Outstanding achievements in the conservation, enhancement and adaptation to new uses of cultural heritage’ was awarded to Museum Oud Amelisweerd. The jury praised the outstanding conservational and museological aspects of the project all through. Soda and restoration architect Krijn van den Ende (BBOR) took the monumental building itself as a starting point for all their ideas and interventions. MOA > exhibitionsAfter transforming the national monument 'Landhuis Oud Amelisweerd' into a museum ('MOA'), Soda developed together with the management a concept for the museum and an exhibition idiom. In a sober style that enhanced the dialogue between the monument and the exhibited art, a family of carriers (like pedestals) and a system for the use of texts were developed.Rijksmuseum Boerhaave For the Rijksmuseum Boerhaave (Leiden), Soda designed the entrance-area, the shop, the cafe and the rentable spaces. The museum reopened in 2017.Museum ArnhemSoda designed the museum cafe (2007) and the entrance & museum shop (2008) for the Museum Arnhem.Kilsdonk MillIn 2010 SODA+ won the competition to design a new visitor centre and a miller's house for the Kilsdonk Mill. For both buildings, a maximum relation was sought with the surrounding landscape, the history of the location and the identity of the organisation/residents. Sustainability was another important feature. This approach by Soda+ was one of the reasons why the Kilsdonk Mill Foundation won the Brabant Culture Prize.Rijnstate Hospital, eye clinic Velp Soda was approached in 2008 to design the interior of the public area (the entrance, waiting rooms and corridors) of the eye clinic in Rijnstate Hospital (Velp).
