受阿姆斯特丹大学委托，将阿姆斯特丹市中心两座毗邻的17世纪运河房屋改建为高等研究院（IAS），荷兰建筑师受到建筑遗产和丰富干预历史的启发，大胆地将新旧结合成一系列独特而又互补的空间，体现了该研究所的跨学科精神，并重新定义了研究人员互动、工作和合作的方式。
高级研究所汇集了世界各地的年轻科学家，目的是产生新的想法和开发新的研究方法。从生物学家，到社会学家，再到经济学家，研究者们共同应对复杂的科学和社会挑战，如气候变化、移民和金融危机，不受学科界限的限制。
Commissioned by the University of Amsterdam to convert two adjoining 17th century canal houses in central Amsterdam into the Institute of Advanced Studies (IAS), Dutch practice HOH Architecten was inspired by the buildings’ architectural heritage and rich history of interventions, boldly combining old and new into a series of unique yet complementing spaces that embody the Institute’s interdisciplinary ethos as well as redefine the way the researchers interact, work and collaborate.
The Institute for Advanced Study brings together young scientists from around the word with the aim of generating ideas and developing new research methodologies. From biologists, to sociologists, to economists, the researchers work together on complex scientific and societal challenges such as climate change, immigration and financial crises, free from the constraints of disciplinary boundaries.
