Highly circular
In November 2015, Liander opened a fully circular renovated office in Duiven. The five old office buildings were converted into an energy-producing complex. In addition, many sustainable choices were made and circular materials applied. For example, old doors in the office serve as benches.
The guided tour for Radboud University employees was organised to experience what such a circular building - in view of the move - actually feels like. During the visit, Tom van Onna (now manager Energy Transition Campus & Facilities but formerly employed by Liander) talked about his experiences as a user of the office complex before and after the renovation. Did the tour inspire the visitors?
Annemarie Hinten works as Director of Operations at the Faculty of Philosophy, Theology and Religious Studies and is involved in the user organisation FdL-FFTR. Hinten: "Liander offers a unique working environment in a circular building where meeting and collaboration are central. This is supported by an inviting interior and atmosphere, which is recognisable by, for example, the return of parts of old electricity pylons in the interior. So in that sense, the visit provided plenty of inspiration for our new accommodation!"
