Revitalizing a historic landmark

Vismarkt 40 in Groningen is home to a remarkable project that breathes new life into a historic rijksmonument. This iconic building, known for its distinctive clock facade, is undergoing a contemporary transformation, seamlessly integrating modern additions with its historic charm.

A blend of historic and modern architecture

The original structure,featuring two simple cube-shaped residential blocks behind the clock facade,has been transformed with a nod to its past. These blocks now sport elegantgabled roofs that blend harmoniously, merging historical and modern architectural elements.

Modern additions with thoughtful design

The new rear additions to the building have been meticulously designed to enhance both form and function. Large glass panels flood the interiors with natural light, framed by sleek aluminum surrounds for a contemporary touch. Spacious balconies provide outdoor space for residents, offering a retreat, even though they do not overlook the Vismarkt.
