Architectural design focused on the future.

“The number of customers we have will only increase in the coming period. Therefore, this building is of great importance to us,” says CEO Ronny van ‘t Oever.

High Tech
The new location provides space to consolidate and connect production activities in the form of cleanrooms with development, laboratory, and office activities.

Connecting

The layering of the building ensures that the various functions have their own place. The core ensures the connection between these functions, with production at the center.

The core can already be recognized on the facade by its distinctive window rhythm, derived from Enschede’s industrial past. This way, the core becomes a self-contained part of the building.

The production on the ground floor is partially concealed in the landscape for privacy. This creates a rolling landscape that wraps around the building.
