The Rock, Neo-futuristic office building in Zuidas, Netherlands.
The Rock features a distinctive vertical layering structure across its 24 floors, incorporating aluminum construction with composite sandwich panels and natural stone surfaces.
Architect Erick van Egeraat completed The Rock in 2009 as part of Amsterdam's Zuidas district development, introducing modern architectural elements to the area.
Nine international architects collaborated on this project, creating a structure that reflects the evolution of contemporary Dutch commercial architecture.
The building integrates 3200 square meters of lightweight rock panels and strategic glass placement to maximize natural light penetration throughout the office spaces.
The facade's irregular spacing of vertical fins and varied material textures create different visual appearances when viewed from multiple angles.
