Zuiderhof I and II Jachthavenweg 109 1081 KM Amsterdam Due to the deep plot, the ING II building is designed in two parts The standard offices are housed in the high-rise building, and the low-rise building contains special types of space such as a restaurant and a conference centre which can also be used separately into the evening The two buildings are linked by a double-height entrance foyer, which is mainly constructed from glass This entrance foyer also forms a natural barrier between the secure office zone and the other types of space mentioned above This entrance foyer has a saw-tooth roof, with the glass facing north and the closed sections clad with zinc The required number of parking spaces is achieved by building a half-sunken car park on two levels In order to keep the parking spaces out of sight, we decided to raise the level of the entrance by one metre This raised level?slides? over the lower parking floor, with the upper parking floor connecting to the entrance level photo: Luuk Kramer 6-2003 23680 m², Interior architect, Urban planner Developer Lighting designer Structural engineer ELV en ELVarchitecten Blauwhoed van Dijk & Partners Zonneveld Ingenieurs Blauwhoed Vastgoed BV Rotterdam http://wwwmimoaeu/users/foglafil/guides/hybrid/ 30
