Housing corporation Woonstad has renovated residential complex Korpersteijn in the Pendrecht district in Rotterdam (NL). The old curtain wall facade was replaced by a modern facade with glass panelling as part of a complete facade renovation. However, the real magic is happening behind the glass panels: Rockpanel facade cladding with a false vertical joint that gives the building a completely new, calm and timeless look and feel.

The entire city of Rotterdam will be completely gas-free by 2050. Pendrecht is one of the first districts to start the transition away from gas. One by one, housing corporation Woonstad is connecting the residential properties it manages in this famous urban district to district heating. The Korpersteijn apartment building was next. As the building, which dates from the 1970s, was outdated, it was quite a challenge to improve its appearance, says architect Jurgen Reichard of A3 Architecten.
