THIS BUILDING HAS BEEN DEMOLISHED

ARCHITECT(URAL OFFICE):
Sybold van Ravesteyn

BUILDING TYPE:
Office buildings

STATE:
demolished

A rectangular block with entrance, directors office and residence was slotted into a round office. Separating the round central hall from an open office zone along the facade was a glazed partition with service windows. Free-standing cupboard units allowed a variety of office subdivisions. Besides being an early example of Functionalist architecture in concrete this building foreshadowed contemporary 'kantoortuinen' (office landscapes). The building was demolished for the Kop van Zuid development.
