这是由Govaert&Vanhoutte Architects设计的Enjoy Concrete总部。该企业的业务是生产和安装建筑预制混凝土元素。因此其总部大楼旨在结合产品悬挑空间与办公室，同时在建筑内整合公司旗下的产品。该项目位于工业区与绿色运河之间的战略区位，客户想该建筑具有可识别性，能被沿路的行人和驾驶者所望见，同时成为从绿化到工业区之间的过渡区。该设计成为了企业展示自身的橱窗，完全使用了预制混凝土元素建造。建筑立面由6*3米的混凝土板组成。所有窗户都是用了相同的比例。

From the architect. Enjoy Concrete produces and installs architectural prefabricated concrete elements. The brief for their new corporate building was to combine a production hanger together with offices, while integrating their own product within the building. Being on a strategic point in between an industrial estate and a green canal, they wanted to be seen by the passing traffic, as well as to become a transition from green to industrial.The design for the headquarters for Enjoy Concrete became a true showcase for their own capabilities, being constructed entirely out of prefabricated concrete elements. Its facade are made out of concrete slabs of 6 by 3 meters. All windows share these same proportions.

The building mainly consists out of a hall for production and storage. The office spaces are in front of the building, spread over 4 levels, allowing light and visibility onto the main road. A cantilevered volume (12m50 in total) containing the board room is located at the top corner of the building. This box also shares the same 6x3 meters proportion. The long volume was made out of a lighter steel structure, allowing large windows on the south west façade. The steel structure is internally anchored into the concrete staircase, creating a counter weight for the long cantilever. Inside the boardroom a solid steel table stands only on 2 legs, having an over span of 7m50.

The facade is further characterized by a pattern image, of the beautiful treeline along the canal “DamseVaart” on the prefab slabs through the application of the “Graphic Concrete” procedure. The digital image was broken down into big dots, making the total picture become clear only from a distance. The facade creates an interesting interaction between the building and its surroundings, as the building reflects the nature across the street and canal. In essence the HQ for enjoy concrete is one big concrete block. The floating boardroom functions as an eye catcher for the approaching traffic, and also breaks the simple volume. The print of the treeline blends the concrete mass into the green surroundings.
