Bekkering Adams architecten is a dynamic and versatile office, founded in 1997 in Rotterdam by Juliette Bekkering and reinforced with Monica Adams in 2005.

With an enthusiastic team of approximately 8 people the office works on outstanding and innovative projects. The commissions vary from complex building assignments to concept development, ranging from housing to public buildings, from urban to interior design. Over the years a distinct oeuvre has been established, characterized by remarkable and explicit buildings.

The aim is to strive for innovation and the conservation or restoration of existing qualities. The main focus is to enrich and fortify the identity and quality of the built environment. The purpose of the office is to make buildings with a soul, and to create sustainable environments that make their occupants proud. Joyous, unique and personal attention are the keywords from which the office operates, always cherishing the joy of designing.

Recently the Head office of Schuurman Group was completed. Other realized buildings comprise of the Boostergemaal-Oost in Amsterdam, Offices Maashaven O.Z. de Zuidpunt for the municipality of Feyenoord (Rotterdam), the fire station and rescue service Vlissingen Middelburg and pavilion Lloydplein. Currently the office works on a mix-use urban ensemble, a Forensic Youth Psychiatric Clinic, a Primary school with day-care centre, a villa, an educational office building and a Datacentre. The office is interested in the potential of public space and has worked on a design study exploring the possible meaning of schoolyards and playgrounds for the public domain.
