About Schouwburgplein

The Schouwburgplein is a car- and bicycle-free square in Rotterdam with the Pathé Schouwburgplein cinema (clad with corrugated iron) with seven screens, and the Rotterdam Theater, and on the north side the De Doelen concert hall. Below is a large parking garage.

Materials such as epoxy, wood, rubber and metal were used for the paving. There are large moving light poles, long benches, and alternating spouting fountains. Vertical ventilation pipes are surrounded in pairs by fencing, forming a kind of tower.
