DE ZAAT

Building and offices administrative centre

Project description

Along the Scheldt just outside of Antwerp, on the site of a former shipyard, the architects designed a new administrative centre and a new police building. Both projects form part of the redevelopment of 80 hectares of old industrial land into new living and working space on the water. Because of its high intrinsic value, the architects decided to renovate the shipyard’s former management building, converting it into an open, effective and accessible glass house for citizens.
