Renovations, refurbishments and reconversions this week: a museum about an English icon, a cramped Amsterdam apartment and a 62-metre long barge. Also, the Dutch graduation season is upon us, and this week we list the various final exhibitions and presentations happening around The Netherlands. Keep an eye out in the following weeks for our graduation reviews. Happy talent scouting!

Florence Revisited
An English legend is brought back to life with the striking exhibition interior of The Florence Nightingale Museum in London which was redesigned by Kossmann.dejong.
