Essent roofgardens
The office of Essent in Den Bosch has been substantially extended and refurbished. The building complex has a labyrinth like structure and has a number of roof gardens. From the working stations there is a good view towards the roof gardens. Each of the gardens is given a strong recognizable identity. When walking through the building, the gardens are used as points of orientation. The gardens are: the entrance square with cushions of box and birch logs, the Bamboo Plaza, the modern patio garden with Gleditia's, the natural shade garden with tree logs and the baroque print board garden. The garden themes are extended to the interior design of the workspace. The gardens contribute to a pleasant working climate and express the environmental-conscious attitude of Essent.
