Article source: architecten-en-en This building accommodates an advanced vocational school and has been designed as an ensemble with the neighboring ROC on the Stappegoor Campus in Tilburg. The entrance is located on the side of the campus, which creates an omnidirectional building. It has been designed as a split-level volume surrounded by stories in different heights, allowing the various parts of the program to be accommodated in a reliable way that offers flexibility towards the future.

A continuous educational line towards intermediate vocational education is emphasized. This relationship is also present in a physical way by means of a walkway towards the neighboring existing ROC building.

By combining the entrance with the greenhouse of the environmental studies sector, an ensemble that brings light and air to the heart of the building has been established. All the sectors are situated around this entrance hall, creating a visual relationship and a natural transition from crowded to calm.

Therefore, it is essential that a building can accommodate these changes. Campus 013 is structured in a modular, columnar manner with minimal use of load-bearing walls. The arrangement of the façade allows placing a wall every 90 centimeters. The only exceptions to this approach are the rooms that are less prone to changing visions, such as the auditorium or the entrance. These have been designed as specials.

In the design, this results in a black stern construction, in front of which a white façade of expanded metal has been erected. A rain cover, sun shading and above all, a powerful linkage with the existing buildings. By efficiently designing certain specials, such as the connecting corridor, the auditorium and the entrance, in a deviant manner, the building gets a face of its own. Truly a building to be proud of, as it is part of the campus, yet something completely unique.
