MAASHAVEN HOUSING, ROTTERDAM
MIXED-USE OFFICE BUILDING FOR THE BOROUGH OF FEIJENOORD
Maashaven de Zuidpunt is a mixed-use building of 10.000 square meters whose principal occupant is the Rotterdam borough of Feijenoord. Two building volumes come together at the short end of the block where they form a massive, expressive brick superstructure that rests on a glazed volume containing the borough's council chamber. A trapezium-shaped hall cuts through the block and contains the public facilities. Above the hall and council chamber are three floors of lettable offices. The borough's offices are located around a patio within the block. On the side overlooking the water the complex is crowned by six apartments, reached via a gallery skirting this patio.
