Zalmhaven Rotterdam Office Building

New Dutch Architecture Development: Holland Offices design by KCAP Architects&Planners, Netherlands

8 Feb 2008

Zalmhaven Building

Location: Erasmusbridge, Rotterdam, The Netherlands

Date: 2008-

Design: KCAP Architects

This Dutch office building is part of an urban design scheme by KCAP. It’s location along the Erasmusbridge is one of the most prominent in Rotterdam. The shape is ambiguous: an orthogonal base of five floors evolves into two fan shaped volumes.

At the side of the square the upper eight floors cantilever dramatically to provide a view to the river. By shifting back and aside vistas of existent and future apartment buildings will be respected. Terraces on each floor add extra value to the offices.
