About the venue
Sandcastle was designed in the 1980s by the architectural firm Alberts & van Huut, as a new office for ING. It was meant to be a building where the human being was central. It became a striking, organic design consisting of 10 T-shaped towers connected in an S-shaped curve. A remarkable counterpart to all the rectangular office buildings from that time. Sandcastle is not only remarkable to see from the outside, but it is certainly not so unique on the inside. The building has many height differences, a unique play of lines, beautiful sight lines, and many unique details, such as art specially developed for Sandcastle. Whether it’s a one-on-one session or a large training, you can switch between different places inside and outside. Ideal for organizing various break-out sessions and then ending the day with a toast.
Meeting Rooms
Meetings, a brainstorming session, a presentation, a workshop, Sandcastle offers all the possibilities to come together and make the most of your meeting. There are 12 meeting rooms, each with its own layout and atmosphere. The special design provides a unique experience that inspires and impresses your guests. In addition to the meeting rooms, you will find various squares with workspaces, tables, and corners in the internal street of Sandcastle to informally consult, brainstorm, or collaborate. Take a seat in the auditorium, a two-person workspace, or a long table. Sandcastle offers a place for every form of consultation that meets your needs.
Food and Drink
Sandcastle has various facilities for food and drink and a café that is accessible to everyone. A cup of coffee in the cozy DE living room café, a snack, a sandwich, or a salad, and of course various options for extensive lunch and event catering.
Events and Parties
Sandcastle offers more than just a place to work or meet. There is a lot to experience and organize in the unique spaces of the building. Lunching in the café, yoga among the visual arts in the gardens, a film screening in the cinema, a jazz session in the theater square, or an event in one of the unique spaces of Sandcastle are just a few examples of the possibilities.
