Apollo Office Building Design by SOM Architects in Amsterdam
Apollo Office Building, is Amsterdam Building was designed by SOM Architects, located in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Amsterdam’s Nieuw Zuid District is characterized by an attention to design detail, context, contrast, and scale—trademarks of Hendrik Petrus Berlage, the early 20th century Dutch architectural master who inspired the Amsterdam School and whose Master Plan for Nieuw Zuid is considered one of the great exemplars of its kind. SOM’s thoughtful design for the last developable site in the district could thus be no less than, as its designer suggested, “an essay in the responsibility of architecture in which the individual achievement must be in harmony with the collective sense of design.” [ SOM Architects ]
