Other Projects by derksen windt architecten
Cafeteria van Ruyven
Maassluis, The Netherlands
The young architectural firm derksen|windt architecten created the design for this striking
cafeteria, which lies in its surroundings as a stopping place in an environment dominated by
industrial activity. The design for the new Cafeteria is based on a contemporary fusion of
American 50's diners and the style of the Amsterdam School.
The cafeteria is located alongside a busy connecting road which separates the old centre
of Maassluis and the adjacent business park. In the background of the cafeteria lies the
train track which connects Rotterdam and Hoek van Holland.
The pavilion-like building has a beautiful brick layer with rounded corners over which a flat roof,
also with rounded corners, is hanging over. The masonry is interrupted by two large windows with
mullions and minimal dimensioned frames. These give passers-by a look inside and create a living
showcase that excites and invites passers.
The striking roof, which lies on and stretches over the brick base, is characterized by two
horizontal stainless steel bands. The façade lighting is integrated in the overhang which makes
the cafeteria stand out at night. The roof has a raised, recessed part that is covered with vertical
elements and is completed by an aluminium strip. Seen from the outside, the raised roof causes a
nice contrast and transition to the air. In the interior the partial extra high ceiling creates a feeling
of spaciousness, where the skylights which are incorporated herein certainly contribute.
With this cafeteria the client has an original and unique accommodation which will last for many
years and boost the appearance of the area. Cafeteria Ruyven is, partly thanks to its
accommodation, elected entrepreneur Maassluis elected in 2012.
