Van Nelle I

Rotterdam-Overschie (Zuid-Holland), Netherlands

Former tobacco, coffee and tea factory, this industrial monument is a fine example of International Style / Modernism. The use of conrete, steel and glass gives it a clean and spacious look that is still modern, even after 70 years.
Today it is used for a collection of companies in the creative industry: architecture, communication, industrial design, whatever.
Design and construction: 1925-1931 by J.A. Brinkman & L.C. van der Vlugt.

Here's where I'll spend the next two years in my new adventure, studying photography.

Canon EOS 20D ,Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM
1/8s f/6.3 at 24.0mm iso1600 handheld full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto
