The Leerpark in the Dutch province of South Holland was established at the end of the 1990s. Today, the site is home to teaching institutions and operations as well as housing, retail, sports facilities etc. and has become a vibrant area. The new head building, the Kopgebouw, is particularly eye-catching with its striking appearance.

In keeping with the wishes of their clients, RAU Architects created a striking educational and office building with approximately 7545 m² of gross floor area. The result is a five storey building that looks like it is wrapped in an oversized blanket. This particular look was achieved using the Schüco FACID 65 textile façade. The three dimensional screening, sun shading, glare and weather protection gives the visual effect of gathered fabric through the clever shaping with different, strongly pronounced waves. The golden colour is the perfect addition to the eye-catching shape and makes the building shine brightly even on grey days.
The textile façade can be used to envelope all types of buildings, giving them a unique exterior appearance. This can be adapted to changing requirements quickly and efficiently, without limiting its function – an important step on the path to the transformative façade. The variety of shapes including rectangles, squares, trapezoids and arches provides a great deal of design freedom. The textile façade can also be seamelssly combined with other Schüco systems, as demonstrated on the Kopgebouw building with the AWS 65 Schüco window system and the FWS 50 mullion/transom façade.
