The historic warehouse of the Philips corporation built in the 1940s is an icon of modern architecture. Caruso St John Architects mastered the challenge of renovating the industrial heritage building without impairing its character. On the roof, a new three storey residential structure was created, in addition to a market hall on the ground floor, a parking garage above it and spaces for experimentation for young firms where products were stored in the past.
