阿姆斯特丹金融区绿色大道办公空间改造

Apollolaan 171Apollolaan is a prominent green avenue in Amsterdam’s south district, within a unique neighbourhood defined by Berlage’s architecture from the early twentieth century, and the iconic Hilton Hotel by the Dutch modernist H.A. Maaskant. In the late 1980s, the JP Morgan bank organized a design competition for its new office located at a corner site along Apollolaan. The monolithic design by Wim Quist with a largely opaque façade – suiting the security needs of the bank – was favored against other competition entries, including that of OMA. As the building transformed from the space for a single financial institution into rental offices, the original design could no longer meet the new functional needs, or the anticipation of the tenants to work in a more open work environment connected with the neighbourhood.Read moreClientKroonenberg Groep bvYearongoingStatusConstructionProgramOfficePartnerDavid GianottenTeamCollaborators
