Building 356

Building 356 is the beating heart of Unmanned Valley and an inspirational working environment for high-tech companies.

Building 356 has two floors of rentable space ranging from 30 to 1,000 square feet and common facilities such as a reception area, meeting rooms and training rooms. It is 136.5 metres long, and the interior spaces overlook the adjacent test field.

An internal street connects the different parts and functional sections of the building. The robust construction gives each unit great layout flexibility for a range of uses: flexi workstations, office, production, testing and training.

A large part of the facade has been broken open and the window frames now let in abundant light. More glass has also been used in the internal street of the building. This creates an open and transparent atmosphere. Hydrogen cells and special wind turbines on the roof provide green energy.

History still visible
Building 356 was built in the 1980s specifically for the maintenance of Orion patrol aircraft of the Royal Dutch Navy. The huge rooms were workshops where engines and propellers were overhauled. The smaller rooms contained a welding shop, a paint shop, a sheet metal shop, a bench work shop and even a parachute drying tower.

The building has been renovated by the Dutch Central Government Real Estate Agency with respect for its history. The original textures, materials and colours have been preserved to the greatest possible extent.
