Kromhoutkazerne, Military headquarters in Utrecht, Netherlands
The Kromhoutkazerne complex includes nine office buildings arranged perpendicular to the main road, surrounded by gardens and a large pond near Kromme Rijn.
Constructed in 1913, the barracks incorporated elements of Fort Vossegat, which formed part of the New Dutch Waterline defense system during the nineteenth century.
The design integrates three zones - the Strip, Field, and Wedge - preserving historical structures while incorporating modern architectural elements with white facade ledges.
The facility houses more than 3,000 military personnel workspaces and includes sports facilities, meeting rooms, dining areas, and ceremonial grounds for military events.
The buildings feature glass facades with different color variations inspired by traditional Dutch land division patterns seen throughout the countryside.
