Architects: C.A. Hardeman (1893-1961)

Clemens Antonius Hardeman was born in Kralingen (Rotterdam) on November the 28th 1893 as the son of a catholic carpenter and contractor who worked as an overseer for architect H. Kroes. Later had an office of his own in Oldenzaal. Before that he may have had an office in Zwolle. He mostly worked in the eastern parts of the country that belonged to the Utrecht archdiocese. 
C.A. Hardeveld died in Oldenzaal on October the 23rd of 1961. His son C.J.W. Hardeman (1923-1974) also became an architect.
