DPG Media is moving to a new head office in Amsterdam Overamstel. The site in question covers an area of 46,000 square metres, and the building will be one of the largest hybrid timber office buildings in the world according to the developer, Being. The building will house various brands and services provided by DPG Media. In addition to office suites, editorial areas and studios, the building will also have test labs, meeting rooms, sports facilities, restaurants and a waterside event location. Open areas, double-height spaces and terraces will give a sense of openness, promoting contact between users.
The ambition for the building is for it to attain BREEAM ‘Outstanding’ standard, the highest sustainability classification awarded by the Dutch Green Building Council.
