Built for a coffee, tea and tobacco company and designed by Brinkman & Van der Vlugt, the Van Nelle Factory is a landmark of the Dutch Neues Bauen movement. Long glazed facades, rooftop rotunda and elevated walkways express an architecture of light and openness. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, it now serves as a venue and offices.
