Five new residential complexes have been built around two existing buildings on the bend leading to the Cruquius site. The Sigma factory building, the largest old building in the area, has been preserved to keep history visible in the transformation of this industrial environment.
The monument conservation authorities advocated for a dominant position for the main building, which meant that it had to remain visible as the most important volume upon entering Cruquius. In addition, the authentic paint factory behind the factory has been preserved because of its significance for the scale and atmosphere of the area. This has created a coherent whole in which the functional architecture of the factory has influenced the surrounding buildings.
The spacious living room is located at the front of the apartment and features large, industrial-style windows that provide an abundance of natural light. The corner location and glass windows create a spacious feeling. The authentic details of the former warehouse create a unique atmosphere.
The kitchen is the heart of the home and has been designed with an eye for style and functionality. The kitchen island, finished in a dark color palette with light wood accents, offers space for cooking and socializing. The Bulthaup kitchen is equipped with high-quality built-in appliances from Gaggenau and modern amenities, such as a Quooker and a Bora induction hob with integrated extraction.
The bedroom is an oasis of calm, with an en-suite walk-in closet and direct access to the study. This study is ideal for working from home or as a reading room. When the weather is nice, the windows can be opened fully. The bathroom is a real eye-catcher, finished in modern shades of gray with a sleek design. A freestanding black bathtub and a spacious walk-in shower offer a luxurious spa experience.
