Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences celebrates topping out milestone new building Kralingse Zoom

16 March 2017

On Wednesday, 8 March, the new, sustainable education building on the Kralingse Zoom site reached its maximum height. Staff and students took a look at their future learning and working environment. From September 2017 the Kralingse Zoom location offers accommodation to the new Rotterdam Business School, the location for all economic and business education at the Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences.

Spectacular glass atrium

Paul de Ruiter Architects designed the new building: "An eye-catching element of the design is the spectacular glass atrium of 27 to 27 meters. The facade consists of floor to ceiling transparent glass. It provides plenty of daylight into the building."

SMT Bouw & Vastgoed is the company that realises the new building on the Kralingse Zoom site. The construction activities have a tight schedule: on 31 August the building will officially be opened.
