In Amsterdam, the Genya armchairs and E5000 study benches embody the monumentality of the newly revitalised Tripolis Park Office, designed by MVRDV
LAMM products address challenges such as material recycling, low environmental impact, optimal acoustics, and refined aesthetics
Two of the three buildings, among the last designed by Aldo Van Eyck—a leading figure in Structuralism—have been revitalised through a project by the renowned Dutch studio MVRDV. The iconic volumes are complemented by a 12-storey barrier building, designed to shield the campus from the noise of the adjacent motorway. In Amsterdam, the new business centre—already occupied by major international companies—offers a green oasis for both users and visitors.
Preserving the past while addressing contemporary needs and generating high-tech, sustainable environments was one of the main objectives of the project. The interiors were designed by Hollandse Nieuwe Architecture & Interior Design, a Dutch studio specialising in the creation of state-of-the-art workspaces. Inside, the spaces are stimulating and welcoming, with a strong focus on occupant well-being, featuring circadian lighting and sensors that regulate air circulation. A green lung connects Van Eyck’s iconic building with the new volume, becoming a strategic space for interaction through informal areas for meetings, collaboration, and knowledge exchange.
An office that feels like a living room but without sacrificing a sense of monumentality, reflected also in the new auditorium, a true highlight due to its excellent acoustics, achieved through integrated design of the floor, walls, furnishings, and ceiling. In the new, expansive setting, every design choice was guided by the origin of the materials, their recyclability, and their environmental impact. These ambitions are perfectly reflected in the minimalist Genya armchairs, designed by Dante Bonuccelli, and the elegant E5000 study benches by Orlandini Design. The seats, compact thanks to concealed components integrated into their volume, are arranged in straight rows on stepped tiers with a centre-to-centre spacing of 58 cm. They were selected in a version upholstered in black 100% recyclable Trevira CS polyester fabric, OEKO-TEX® certified.
In front of the armchairs, the front-row E5000 seats are installed, each featuring a 25 cm deep fixed surface made from black laminate by ABET Laminati. The study benches, also spaced at 58 cm intervals, were electrified and prepared to accommodate Bosch microphones.
