Research News: UNStudio Creates Urban Vision for Hilversum’s Media Park

UNStudio was selected by the Hilversum Municipality and Media Park Enterprise to develop an urban vision which could offer a roadmap for the transformation of Hilversum’s Media Park into a vibrant and leading destination for future media content creation. The urban vision was born out of the need to adapt to new technologies and shifting consumer demands and includes potential programmatic, spatial and infrastructural development models that will fully prepare the Hilversum Media Park for the future.

In the vision, phased transformation of existing areas, as well as new interventions, respond to the already present shifts in the media landscape, while short and long-term strategies for future scenarios offer solutions for those that have yet to occur. Wimar Jaeger, Vice Mayor, Economic, Media and culture portfolio: “Our goal is to create a media park that is vibrant and affordable, an international magnet, a place where talent can grow.”
