The DUWO building consists of two residential blocks with 58 luxury student apartments and an underground single-level parking garage. Commissioned by DUWO – a specialist in student housing – these apartments were built for PhD candidates and students. The buildings overlook either the Waardgracht or Looiersplein on one side, and the future Meelfabriek Garden on the other.
The choices in finishes, colors, and materials make it far from an ordinary student complex. The use of corten steel on the front façade, the fences of the internal balconies, and the footbridge give the building a warm and rugged appearance. Together with the selection of facade bricks and the dark recessed anodized aluminum window frames, this design aligns well with the redevelopment of De Meelfabriek.

Completed in 2018.
