Erasmushuis, Office building on Coolsingel, Rotterdam, Netherlands
The Erasmushuis features twelve floors with a rectangular plan, white glazed brick exterior, and concrete balconies along its western facade facing Coolsingel street.
Architect Willem Marinus Dudok designed this functionalist structure in 1939, and it remained standing through the Rotterdam bombardments of May 1940.
The building's main entrance hall displays white marble walls and gold aluminum details, reflecting the banking sector's architectural preferences of the 1930s.
Located between Bulgersteyn and Churchillplein, the structure contains a basement vault and includes emergency stairs connecting balconies on its southern side.
The north facade incorporates a continuous bay window that houses both staircases and elevators, creating a vertical architectural element visible from street level.
