Glass Atrium for CAH Dronten | Deforche Construction Group

The Venlo Greenhouse from Forzon, a group company associated with Deforche Construction Group, was employed for the Christian Agricultural College Dronten (CAH) in Dronten. Serving as a center for advanced education, the greenhouse encases the entire 16-meter-high building. Utilizing the Venlo system, the structure substantially reduces energy consumption and exploitation while providing space for informal education and interaction.
