Heimbach

Benthem Crouwel designed a new visitor and research center for the Heimbach Group in Düren, Germany. The new building of the Research and Visitor Center is an ‘in-house-designed house’. Two new building will be added to two existing buildings and a lightweight roof will be placed over them.

The design concept looks very familiar. The dutch architectural firm also applied this white, lightweight rooftop in their design for the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, currently under development. This museum was also partly renovated and a new open glass structure was added, just like the visitor and research centre of the Heimbach Group. It makes one wonder what Benthem Crouwel Architects will come up with next.
