The Stadhuis (City Hall) in IJmuiden stands out among local architecture — its design contrasts sharply with surrounding Dutch styles. Taking these drone shots, I aimed to show that difference: form, angles, and how this building interacts with space around it under open skies.
Flying above, the images capture City Hall’s clean lines, flat roofing, and the mix of materials that make it visually distinct. Shadows fall sharply across facades; geometric shapes play with negative space. Where local architecture tends toward gabled roofs and traditional colour tones, this building’s style emphasises modernism and function. The aerial view lets you see its relationship to nearby streets, plots, and the way light hits its structure from different angles.
