Inside, the building offers open-plan office space across two floors. PCS occupies the upper level with 40 employees, while the lower level is still to be leased. The consistent use of wood combined with floor-to-ceiling glazing ensures a bright and light-filled ambience in all areas. The space is complemented by an underground garage with 26 parking spaces and an attractively landscaped roof garden above the first floor. The main roof will also be used as a location for a photovoltaic system with 216 solar panels, each measuring 1.95 m², and a total output of approximately 90 kWp.
Wooden Column and Beam Construction
To minimise the carbon footprint, the main structure of the wood-hybrid building consists of a wooden column and beam construction, as well as walls and floors made of CLT. Stability is achieved through a concrete core. A freely divisible floor plan with a total area of 1,600 square meters is created around this core, with a lockable podium with a grandstand staircase for consultations and presentations located in the centre. "The sustainability balance is further optimized by the integration of energy-saving building technology, which ultimately ensures that the building operates in an energy-positive manner, producing more energy than it ultimately consumes," explains project architect Maarten Terberg. "In addition, the building, with the exception of the parking garage, is completely dismantled. This applies to the main load-bearing structure as well as the glass facade and all building services." Furthermore, materials such as PVC, adhesives, sealants, or polyurethane foam were avoided, and no composite products were used. To implement this goal, all materials used are documented in a materials pass.
