Stichting SLA
SLA, is an acronym for Slimme Architectuur, the Dutch translation for Smart Architecture. But SLA in Dutch also means lettuce, a main product of our agricultural industry known for its 'greenness' and 'freshness'. SLA aims to be as green and fresh as a lettuce-leaf.

Articles
The articles for the smartgrid have been written by Piet Vollaard, Jacques Vink and Marc Neelen. The translations are made by Stacey Murphy.

Site design
This site was designed by KnockOut, Yvo Zijlstra and Alien, Marcel van der Zwet.

Site maintenance
This site is developed and maintained by ArchiNed, the architecture site of the Netherlands, in co-operation with Stichting SLA. It is edited by Marc Neelen.
