The architects explain that, "...Their position on the square fronting the railway station (Stationsplein) was influential on this design for offices and a hotel. One of the two principal masses (the office tower) has rounded ends that point the building in every direction so that you get a view of the city from it on all sides.  A layered composition of balconies, sunbreaks and clear glass render this building transparent. Its main structure is a combination of steel and concrete, with facades of silver-grey aluminium panels and steel parts that persistently lend it the colour of the sky."

The office block acquired the name Zilveren Toren for obvious reasons.  When I took these images in March of 2015 the tower was home to the "Regardz Meeting Centre".  It describes itself as, "... a meeting location with unique views."  Adding that, "The hip, industrial decor is the work of Swiss artist Heinz Julen. The location is ideal for a variety of events: from short discussion, brainstorming or flex workplace to Congress. The location provides all your meeting needs: free wifi and good coffee to skilled employees and culinary surprises at Level Eleven. Welcome to the Silver Tower!"
