Projet
CI005.S1.1937.PR1
Description:
In 1937, the Bataafsche Import Maatschappij (The Batavian Import Company), established a building programme for new headquarters within The Hague. The company wished to create office space for 600 employees. The company invited competition entries from four architects, including Oud. Oud's design was approved in 1939 and included a rectangular block of rooms oriented around a central corridor with office spaces separated by partitions. The building was surrounded by a garden. Oud also created designs for a possible future expansion and later designed office furnishings. While construction was interrupted by the war, the company proceeded with minimum construction until its restoration and continued expansion. Oud assisted with restoration after its bombing by Allied forces in 1945. The erected building was criticised for its traditional decorative patterns (Taverne et al. 2001, 411-414). Project series includes plans for the Shell Building, as well as a photograph of the building facades and one of the furniture.
