	Pierre Cuypers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Petrus Josephus Hubertus (Pierre) Cuypers (Roermond, The Netherlands; May 16, 1827 – March 3, 1921) was a Dutch architect.
		Cuypers was the son of a church painter and grew up in surroundings in which interest for art was encouraged.
		Cuypers' ecclesiastical work was initially strongly influenced by the 13th century French architecture.

	Cathedral of Saint Bavo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The original intention was to ask Pierre Cuypers to design the church, and it's possible he even made a first design, but due to his age his son, Joseph Cuypers, became the architect instead.
		Cuypers at first designed a church in a neo-gothic style that still clearly showed the influence of his father, but eventually, after numerous changes, Cuypers decided to focus on a neo-romanesque style instead, with influences from byzantine and jugendstil architecture.
		In this period Cuypers was assisted by his son Pierre Cuypers Jr.

	Architects: P.J.H. Cuypers (1827-1921) part 1/2
		Petrus J. Cuypers, also known as Pierre Cuypers, was responsible for the design of many churches in neo-Gothic style in the Netherlands, and as such is one of the leading figures in the proces of catholic emancipation in the second half of the 19th century.
		Cuypers introduces a type of tower he would frequently use later on in his career; on a square segment, with small turrets in each corner, stands an octagonal segment which is connected to the small turrets by 'flying buttresses'.
		Cuypers adapts his original design for a church in Baarlo, which was inspired by the church of Nieuwstadt, for this new church.

		Petrus Josephus Hubertus (Pierre) Cuypers (Roermond, The Netherlands; May 16, 1827 –; March 3, 1921) was a Dutch architect.
		The Rhineland (Rheinland in German) is the general name for the land on both sides of the river Rhine in the west of Germany.
		His conceptions concerning restorations has been frequently criticized; restoration seldom implied that the building was awfully damaged, but Cuypers tried to satisfy an idealized image of the style or the idea how the original builders had meant to be.

	De architect
		Uit veel vroege schetsen voor prijsvraagontwerpen, die bewaard zijn gebleven in Stuyts archief (het archief bevindt zich in het Nederlands Documentatiecentrum voor de Bouwkunst te Amsterdam), blijkt dat hij aanvankelijk sterk onder invloed stond van Pierre Cuypers.
		Alhoewel voor Cuypers de gotiek - zij het vrij nagevolgd - de aangewezen stijl voor de kerkebouw was, heeft hij deze niet zonder meer nagevolgd om de uiterlijke vorm ervan, maar omdat hij daarin bruikbare en goede beginselen meende te herkennen.
		Deze beginselen achtte hij overigens niet gebonden aan een bepaalde stijl: "De stijl berust alleen op de ware, juist gevoelde uitdrukking van een beginsel en niet op de veranderlijke vorm; allerminst wanneer die vorm het uitvloeisel is van eene voorbijgaande of zoogenaamde smaak.", zou hij schrijven.

		It is surprising to see that in spite of their ardour to revive the Middle Ages as accurately as possible, such an enormous difference in their views on use of materials arose.
		Cuypers used a wide variety of materials, either in a very traditional or in a very advanced, modern way.
		Nearly all the materials introduced in the building industry during the nineteenth century are represented in the castle, ranging from granite, terracotta and natural stone to asphalt, (Monier) concrete and iron constructions.
