The strength of the massing concept lies in its simplicity. The general massing is a mere result of the given height limitations and the integration of a generous indoor community space on the fifth floor. The curves simply connect the higher and lower volumes. The impressive six floors high curved entrance completes the gracious landmark.<\/p>\n
On the ground floor on the northern entrance square, facing the expressway and train station, a retail podium offers space to a variety of retail and f&b concepts. The curved northern entrance is the public entrance for visitors and functions as access to the second floor retail units. The south fa\u00e7ade has a more formal entrance for the offices. This generous business lobby assures multi-tenant flexibility and an efficient flow of people at peak hours.<\/p>\n
The six floor high public entrance atrium connects to the spectacular sky lounge on the sixth floor. The sky lounge functions as a central platform for informal encounters to stimulate knowledge exchange and social coherence between the users. This community plaza with fantastic views on the station and the surrounding area is the key ingredient for a stimulating open innovation environment as a strong business advantage for the businesses in the building. The big roof garden on the same floor is the outdoor equivalent.<\/p>\n","text_right":"
Op de vijfde verdieping maakten we een gemeenschappelijk binnenplein waar collega\u2019s elkaar ontmoeten. Dit plein kijkt uit over het station en de omgeving. Het is een onderscheidend ingredi\u00ebnt voor een aantrekkelijke werkomgeving en een succesvolle innovatie-gedreven bedrijfsvoering. Dit geldt ook voor de daktuin op dezelfde verdieping. Een zes verdiepingen tellende vide verbindt deze \u2018skylounge\u2019 met de hoofdentree.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":false,"caption":" ","variation":"left"},{"acf_fc_layout":"text_image","disable_crop":false,"sticky_text":false,"image":false,"image_landscape":false,"full_image":false,"image_location":"right","text_top":"
