Project
CI005.S1.1951.PR1
Description:
The Northeast Polder Works for Wieringermeet initiated a contest for the design of a polder tower that would serve as a water tower and act as landmark to the empty polder area. Oud created one design that conformed to the competition guidelines and a second alternative one which he favoured. Project E was created according to the competition rules, while Motto E represented Oud's favoured design. Project E featured a carillon at the midway point of the tower; in Motto E, Oud instead placed the carillon at the top of the tower with the middle section as office space. Ultimately, the board declined all competition entries and assigned H. van Gent to the 1959 tower design (Taverne et al. 2001, 465). Project series includes a perspective drawing for Motto E of the polder tower.
