Studioninedots transformed the existing office of housing corporation Lieven de Key in Amsterdam into a sustainable and future-proof headquarters. The corporation's two branches were efficiently merged into the existing building on the Hoogte Kadijk, additionally creating space for new social housing on the site of the other office. Lieven de Key's new head office has a BREEAM In-Use rating of Excellent.

The outdated interior of the original office buildings has made way as much as possible for a transparent and surprising office environment, in line with Lieven de Key's modern ambitions. The newly created spaces provide room for spontaneous interactions and happenings, and are subject to an open interpretation in terms of function. The flexible office concept, natural materials, an abundance of daylight and the plenty of greenery introduced around and in the building prepare the housing association for the future.
