Kraanspoor


Kraanspoor
Originally uploaded by Demis de Haan
Kraanspoor / Craneway is a light-weight transparent office building of three floors built on top of a concrete craneway on the grounds of the former NDSM (Nederlandsche Dok en Scheepsbouw Maatschappij) shipyard, a relic of Amsterdam’s shipping industry. The glass building is clear and simple in plan. The newly built construction is characterized by its transparent double-skin climate facade of glass: the outer layer of moveable motor-driven glass louvers appear as lace-work around the building, the inner facade is of hinged timber windows with a full height from office floor to ceiling.
