Canal-ring sun corridors

Amsterdam

North Holland, Netherlands

Amsterdam's 17th-century concentric canal ring is a unique alignment opportunity: the radial streets crossing the canals form sun corridors at a wide range of bearings, and the canals themselves act as long, glassy reflectors when the light gets low.
