Bungehuis, Residential building in Centrum district, Amsterdam, Netherlands.

The Bungehuis spans seven floors with a height of 26 meters and features a reinforced concrete structure covered in natural stone at Spuistraat 210.

Construction began in 1932 under architect Adolf Daniel Nicolaas van Gendt, and after his death, Willem Jacob Klok completed the project in 1934.

The structure received Rijksmonument status for its architectural value, representing the functionalist design principles prevalent in Dutch architecture during the 1930s.

Twenty residential houses were removed to create space for this freestanding structure, which stands between Paleisstraat, Spuistraat, and Singel streets.

The building includes a 33-meter turret and contains a rainwater retention system capable of storing 14,000 liters of water.
