These drawings represent a retrospective engagement with the original design for the Queen Máxima Barracks (Koningin Máximakazerne) at Amsterdam International Airport Schiphol. They present expressive variations of both plans and elevations.
Zvi Hecker frequently revisits completed buildings or finalized designs, continuing on paper and canvas the visionary development of their underlying concepts.

The KMar project is a multi-functional complex of living, working, and training facilities for an approximately 1,500 staff stationed at Schiphol Amsterdam Airport. The complex, when seen from the air and from the runways, should provide a bold architectural accent for the main entrance gate to the Netherlands.
The Koninging Máximakazerne is a military complex evocative of a medieval walled city with contemporary comfort.
