OMA to add horizontal headquarters for National Railway Company of Belgium​​​

OMA unveiled their winning design for the new Brussels headquarters of SNCB NMBS, the National Railway Company of Belgium. Working with local Belgian practice Jaspers-Eyers Architects, OMA will add a new 11-story, 236-meter-long horizontal volume that will be built alongside a historic trio of buildings at the Brussels-South station, along Fonsny Avenue. 

Unoccupied for the last two decades, the trio comprises the former Tri Postal sorting house and two office buildings, which were designed by different architects and realized as an ensemble for the 1958 World's Fair. With OMA's new building, the project will bring together 4,000 SNCB employees.
