Text description provided by the architects. Queen Máxima has opened the Orion education building on 2 September 2013. This remarkable, pentagonal building, with its facades of metal-coated glass (Low Emissivity Glass), is one of the landmark buildings on the Wageningen UR campus. By choosing a rational structure and the best possible integrated technology, Ector Hoogstad Architecten has been able to create a congenial learning and working environment dedicated to the abundance of daylight and spatial surprises within a modest budget. Moreover, Orion is the most sustainable of all the WUR buildings.
