Abstract

Centraal Beheer in Apeldoorn by dutch architect Herman Hertzberger is considered an icon of structuralism, an architectural movement concerned with human scale, repetition and flexibility. Now vacant, it poses an interesting question on what to do with structuralist heritage in the Netherlands. This plan proposes a multifunctional program including a vertical farm, a restaurant, a hotel and education. While this program is radically different from the office function it was built for, the architectural interventions are minimal, using a restorative approach.
