-=== links ===+=== Design === 
 +This former schoolyard is enclosed within a block of 1920's architecture in an area within Amsterdam-West that is particularly devoid of green spaces. FoAM has joined initiator **Arnoud Hekkens** in opening this 1000m2 yard to the public. With local inhabitants under the guidance of some 5 experts, many designs were made and combined into a final design by Sanne Horn. The final design is inspired by the Ryad, the Middle Eastern palace gardens or paradise garden.
  
-website: [[http//:www.detuinvanjan.nl/|De Tuin van Jan]]+=== Focus === 
 +The tuin van Jan is centered around 5 main focus points. For each of these an expert has been guiding the process from the first workshops until the final design. 
 + 
 +   * **Sanne Horn**: garden design, layout and plant selection 
 +   * **Martin Mechers**: urban ecology, who can live here 
 +   * **Dirk van Berge**: orchard, urban fruits 
 +   * **Fransje de Waal**: permaculture, the garden within the neighborhood 
 +   * **Dirk Overduin**: material cycles, resourcing and recycling within a 5 km radius 
 +   * **Johannes Frolich**: water management (joined in later) 
 + 
 +=== Timeline === 
 +The main structure of the garden, like landscaping and pavement, will be implemented in the summer of 2012. Much of the planting will follow in the course of 2013.
