Interesting video, though I'm not a full-on admirer of styles like this, it is ABSOLUTELY an improvement compared to the monstrosities that were built in the 70s and 80s in the Netherlands.
If you want more suggestions for future places to visit, I can recommend two that I've been to myself.
- Brandevoort, Helmond. Basicly built as a 'fortress city', it looks and feels very traditional despite the place being only built quite recently.
- Vathorst, Amersfoort. This place is more contemporary and modern, but has some connections with the past also. The main reason to visit the place is because of the 'Foortse Towers', built by German architect Hans Kollhoff, that look very pleasant despite being skyscrapers.
There's also Westergouwe in Gouda and then there's projects in other countries like Heulebrug in Knokke-Heist (Flemish part of Belgium), Le Plessis Robinson (Paris, France) and of course Poundbury and Riverside in London, but the other ones are less known and definitely worth the visit. Oh, and Dresden and Frankfurt, but I assume you already know of them since you're German. Cheers!
