Einleitung RVU - Gebäude                    Quelle: Homepage MVRDV The RVU is one of the buildings which together make up the 'campus' of cooperating television companies VPRO, VARA, NPS and RVU. In the first instance the location was intended to remain unbuilt, to ensure a continuing 'ecological link' with the Media Park. The threat that future building might disturb this ecological zone is neutralised precisely by building. Entwurf The office is dug like a shaft into the top of the steepest flank of Hilversum Hill. The landscape and with it the ecological link carries on over the roof. The roof also functions as a public balcony with a view over the campus and the Media Park. The elevations and the external ceiling of the projecting portion are clad in Corten steel. The way the building overhangs the slope at ground level forms a porch which includes a drop-off point for visitors and a bicycle shed. The ground level is strewn with pieces of lava between which spotlights aimed at the ceiling light up like glowing embers. The field of lava and the Corten steel ceiling together form a compact undulating space to serve as an introduction to the building.
