Project Description

Bimhuis

Opened in 1974, the renowned Jazz café Bimhuis moved from its Oude Schans location to the ‘Muziekgebouw aan ‘t IJ’ in 2005. To retain the original atmosphere, the interior kept the same dimensions and removable seats were placed right up to the podium. Audiences and musicians feel at home in a space where anthracite grey plates on the walls provide the acoustics together with the ceiling which conceals the air ducts and theatre technology.
