Thomas Rau of RAU Architects and Odette Ex of Ex Interiors have delivered a fully sustainable and circular office building for Triodos Bank and the developer Edge The project has been awarded a 2021 International Architecture Award by The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies Dubbed the “wooden cathedral” the office is the first large-scale 100% wooden reconstructible office building.The new office is located on De Reehorst Estate in Zeist.De Reehorst is part of a series of rural areas in Zeist and Driebergen and is an important link within the National Ecological Network (EHS).In 2011 Triodos Bank decided to build a new office in De Reehorst.Following an earlier high-profile (head) offices in 1999 and 2006 RAU Architecten also designed this new office in collaboration with Ex Interiors.By giving the design maximum circular potential a dynamic balance is created between nature and economy.The arrival of Triodos Bank has led to new momentum to bring the estate into the 21st century.The entire building consisting of unique wooden construction.Wooden floors and wooden columns together form a spectacular construction like that of a “cathedral.” RAU Architects sees a circular building as a temporary combination of products and materials with a documented identity.The origin and planned re-use of all products and materials are carefully documented in order to be able to easily offer them new usage in the future.It is important to anticipate possible changes as much as possible when designing buildings due to changes in user requirements differences in the useful life of building components or external influences such as changing regulations or climate change.The building is literally screwed together with 165,312 screws.This means that whenever dismantling the building the circular potential can be activated 100% without loss of value of materials and products.The composition and form of the five-story building (12,994 m2) are inspired by nature the rhythm of the landscaped rooms in the surrounding estate and the flight paths of bats.The three transparent uniform towers run from south to north and are alternately connected on the ground first and second floors.This physical body provides a beautiful view for all employees daily.Because of its shape three new “landscape rooms” are created between the edge of the forest and the building and create a diversity of new landscape qualities around it.The interior designed by Ex Interiors further reflects the beauty of the surrounding landscape Project: RAU Architects Triodos BankArchitects: RAU ArchitectsDesign Team: Thomas Rau and Jochem AlferinkInterior Architects: Ex InteriorsGeneral Contractor: Aronsohn ConstructionConsultants: DeernsLandscape Architects: Arcadis J.P van Eesteren and BBNDeveloper: EDGEClient: Triodos Bank NederlandPhotographers: Bert Rietberg Input your search keywords and press Enter You can see how this popup was set up in our step-by-step guide: https://wppopupmaker.com/guides/auto-opening-announcement-popups/ Logging out of EU Login will log you out of any other services that use your EU Login account Use the CORDIS log out button to remain logged in on other services This is a machine translation provided by the European Commission’s eTranslation service to help you understand this page.
