Koelhuis District Eindhoven book
Much is known about the dairy industry in Eindhoven, including the birth of FrieslandCampina and the production of milk and butter. Less is known about the history of ice cream production and the specific role played by the Koelhuis, the namesake of this book. But how to deal with this kind of relatively young heritage? Published by Concrete Culture, this book tells the story of Koelhuis’s transformation and the vision to make this “Post-65” industrial heritage an anchor point for a new cultural district with affordable living and working spaces, focusing on Immersive Experiences, media art, and contemporary culture.
