History
Located in the historic heart of Amsterdam, our building on Kerkstraat has a rich past dating back to the 18th century. Originally constructed as a coach house for the grand canal houses at Keizersgracht 524 and 526, it was redesigned in 1758, gaining the elegant façade seen today—immortalized in a painting by Hendrik Keun. This painting is currently hanging in the Rijksmuseum.
​
The coach house once housed stables on the ground floor, with living quarters for the coachmen above. The characteristic hoisting beams on the façade still hint at its original function, while the rear wall ensured privacy for the canal-side gardens.
Now thoughtfully restored, this historic space has been transformed into a vibrant creative hub. With great care, original elements have been preserved, seamlessly blending heritage with contemporary functionality. The spirit of craftsmanship and innovation that once defined this place continues to inspire its new purpose today.

As part of the renovation, we proudly became the first monumental building in Amsterdam to restore its architectural border and crown using advanced 3D printing technology. This innovative approach allowed us to reconstruct intricate details with precision while respecting the building’s original design.
