KPN Tower, Office building in Feijenoord district, Rotterdam, Netherlands.
The KPN Tower stands 96 meters tall with 23 floors and features a sloping north facade measuring 100 meters in height and 40 meters in width.
The construction of this telecommunications headquarters started in 1998 and reached completion with an official opening ceremony on September 28, 2000.
Italian architect Renzo Piano incorporated principles of modern design by focusing on transparency and the integration of natural light throughout the structure.
The building contains 900 flat-panel lamps across its facade, forming a monochrome display that creates moving images visible from multiple locations in Rotterdam.
The structure sits on an island by the New Maas River and includes a single-layered, overhanging glass facade covering 3,000 square meters.
