这是由Kraaijvanger Architects设计的PWN自来水公司总部全面整修和扩建项目，位于荷兰的Velserbroek。建筑核心区设有一个光线满溢、通透的新中庭，是该自来水公司的展览区。中庭连接了该建筑的各个部分，促进了各部门之间的沟通。室内经历了全面整修，正面的窗户经过了翻新，隔热性能有了改善。最后，地面配置了储热系统，而天花板可以控制温度，为建筑降温。

这次整修是必要的，尤其是几个办公室的整合后显得更加小了。不管怎么说，80年代的建筑已经无法满足需求了。内部架构也已经过时了。包括办公室沿线的一公里走廊，也给人不友好、不舒服的感觉。PWN的身份为该总部设计提供了灵感。水将作为一个核心主题，因为该公司的主要工作是为Noord-Holland省提供干净的饮用水。这个特色是通过建筑前方的水池实现的，在晴天的日子里，水池反射阳光到独立式屋顶下面。新建筑同时利用了透明的材料和圆形的形态。

From the architect. Water companyPWN has opened its new headquarters in Velserbroek after an extensive renovation and expansion by the Kraaijvanger architectural firm. A new light-filled, transparent atrium at the heart of the building serves as a showpiece for the water company. The atrium links the building’s constructional elements and promotes communication between departments. The interior has undergone a comprehensive facelift, and the front windows have been renovated and better insulated. Finally, a new system stores thermal energy in the ground, while climate-control ceilings cool the building.

The renovation became necessary after the merging of several company offices rendered the previous premises too small. In any case, the 1980s building had ceased to meet requirements. It made an insufficient impact, in spite of the architect Abe Bonnema’s once-cutting-edge design. And the interior architecture was outdated. Consisting of more than a kilometre of corridors lined with cellular offices, it was environmentally unfriendly and uncomfortable.

PWN’s identity provided inspiration for the new design of its headquarters. Water serves as a key theme, since the company’s primary job is supplying the province of Noord-Holland with clean drinking water. This role is visibly evoked by the pool in front of the building, which reflects sunlight onto the underside of a freestanding roof on bright days. The new construction also makes use of transparent materials and rounded forms. The large glass window facing the water feature undulates like a wave, and curves in the interior call to mind dune landscapes.

The new interior design is based on the concept of flexible working. Communication stairs and voids facilitate relations between departments. Different zones enable employees to work wherever best suits the task at hand. There are dynamic zones with easily accessible meeting areas and quiet zones where people can do work requiring concentration. Careful attention has been paid to acoustics, ensuring these different ways of working can happily coexist.
