Project Description

Walenweeshuis

In 2016, after the French state moved its consulate out of the former 17th century ‘Walenweeshuis’ (Walloon orphanage), Studio C initiated plans to carefully transform and restore this listed building. Designs were made for beautiful office spaces in the historical part and the new wing.
