Health Center Design | Roombeek | Enschede | Netherlands | Claus en Kaan Architecten
By order of Domijn Woningcorporatie, Claus en Kaan Architecten has made a design for a health centre in the area of Roombeek in the city of Enschede in the Netherlands. The building, which apart from a health centre also comprises parking space, apartments, single family homes and a home for the disabled, occupies a remarkable position within the master plan of ArchitectenCie. A building of 10 floors arises on the crossing of Roomweg and de Bleken. The pharmacy as the most public function is prominently present. By gradually decreasing the volume of the building with spacious terrace apartments and splitting up the program in various building parts around an inner garden, the building concurrently makes a connection with the adjacent small scale buildings.
