BUILDING TYPE:
Office buildings

This office building in a well-wooded setting was the first work realized in the Netherlands by Richard Meier. It consists of a cube-shaped public section in four levels and a raised oblong two-storey office wing with parking space below. At the core of the design is a four metre wide central corridor in the office wing, toplit and spatially unified by voids. This corridor is separated from the offices by partitions of glass block, the office’s primary building material together with Meier’s characteristic white aluminium panels.
