Koningin Sophiestraat, Den Haag

transformation of former office building into housing

Atelier PRO provided aesthetic advice for a transformation project on the Koningin Sophiestraat in The Hague. Local and Trebbe transformed a former office building into 67 free-sector rental apartments averaging 87m² in the medium-price segment. The building was fitted out with new window frames, balconies, risers and an elegant elevation. Atelier PRO has added an extra layer to the existing façade repertoire by realizing an aluminum elevation in the rhythm of the original design.

Outdoor spaces were realized by seamlessly connecting balconies to the characteristic prefab elements and by setbacks in the elevation, creating a homogeneous image. Maximum comfort and respect for the original design are important principles for this special project.
