Eight building blocks of Passchier Vandensteen in Rotterdam-Noord needed a façade renovation. Studio Abacaxi is commissioned for one of the building blocks on Tollenstraat. Together with Lagado Architects, TMOJ and Laurens Boodt we had the task to create unique façade designs, while keeping the different buildings recognisable as a family. By the use of a light grey paneling and by enhancing the modularity with vertical fins, the contrasting architecture of Passchier Vandensteen has been memorised in the new design.
