A large scale renovation project in the so called Indonesian neighbourhood of Amsterdam. The former technical school in Timorplein square formed an important part of the renewal. This project renovated the old disused technical school building to include a cinema for the Kriterion student organisation, a hostel and a business centre for small scale, creative enterprises. Space has also been made available for a number of neighbourhood community organisations. The complex opened its doors to the public in the summer of 2007.
