De Hoftoren - Ministry Headquarters
The Hague, The Netherlands
"This exceptional office
building matches the cosmopolitan character of The Hague city centre...is
certainly an outstanding feature of The Hague's Skyline"
Statement,
spring 04
"...the best new building of recent
years."
The City of The Hague
De Hoftoren - Ministry Headquarters of Education, Culture and Science is at the centrepiece of the city's urban redevelopment near the Central Station. The design, chosen through an international competition, features a single tower and low bar building clad in vertical slabs of light sand coloured stone.
This major tower, at 144m,
is one of the tallest in The Netherlands and a civic landmark for the
Hague. The orientation of the office plan
establishes broad views towards the “Malieveld” (a central green space) and the
North Sea and will be a slender 'spire like' profile on the city skyline. The colour of the materials refer to nature,
the use of clear glass, natural silver of anodized aluminium and sand-coloured
limestone suggest clear water, silver clouds and broad sand dunes, respectively,
as seen from the tower heights.
Critics have acclaimed De Hoftoren as "perfect
for the site" in height and form.
