The Depot building
Rotterdam

One of the greenest buildings in the world.

Designed by MVRDV, the Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen in Rotterdam is an architectural landmark and a global reference for sustainable design.

As the world’s first publicly accessible art depot, the building combines radical transparency with advanced sustainability concepts. Its iconic mirrored façade minimizes visual impact on the surrounding park, while energy-efficient systems, smart material choices and a rooftop forest contribute to an outstanding ecological footprint.

The Depot building demonstrates how visionary architecture, innovative technology and sustainability can merge into a future-proof cultural building that sets new international standards.
