Leeuwarden is the European Capital of Culture 2018, and Museum Princessehof celebrates its 100th birthday. This anniversary was the motive for a major renovation of the museum, with the goal of increasing its appeal and accessibility to visitors. i29 interior architects created a surprisingly modern interior in the monumental buildings, which date from the 18th century. The design features an entrance hall, including the museum store and tearoom, the museum square and exhibition areas for the vast collections.
