飞利浦前工业区再造项目

Strijp S is the former factory site of the old Philips-complex in Eindhoven, the Netherlands.

The 27 hectare large area, which is the home of a considerable amount of monumental buildings, provided work to thousands of people between 1920 and 2004.

In 2004 Philips sold Strijp S to investor Park Strijp Beheer, who will be redeveloping the area in different phases to a unique living and working environment, while respecting the original character of the remaining constructions.

One of the most typical elements of the complex is the ‘Leidingstraat’, literally ‘Pipe Street’.

A vast network of pipes and tubes – on top of the monumental steel constructions – transported gas, water, liquids and electricity to the factories on site.

The pipes measured many hundreds of meters, and connected numerous buildings with eachother on the height of more than 10 meters. Developer Trudo transforms this area to a unique place to visit, work and live.
