The point of departure for the second edition of the competition, organised by Bouwinvest and Architecture Centre Amsterdam, was the square between The Olympic 1931 and 1962, the Amsterdam Olympic Stadium and the Amstelveenseweg. The assignment was to create a design in which the square can still be used for a variety of events, while simultaneously preserving a vibrant character for the neighbourhood and other users.

According to the jury, Jelmar Brouwer (1991) succeeded in introducing a human dimension to this large square. The jury was impressed by the coherency of the plan and the ‘less = more’ approach, and sees a talented designer who can think big as well as small.
