A Museum in the Netherlands Is Reborn as a Food Hall

MOUT Venlo channels a greenhouse with the addition of a transparent central glass pavilion

Words by: Will Speros • Photos by Melanie Samat  

Dutch design studio Buro Moon has transformed a former museum into MOUT Venlo, a new café, brewery, and food hall rolled in the eponymous Netherlands locale.

The contemporary structure was reimagined as a park pavilion anchored by a new central glass extension that reinforces views of surrounding parkland. “The park was the main source of inspiration,” says Buro Moon architect and founder Moon Brader. “We wanted to add a central interior space flooded in daylight, where guest would feel like sitting in the park. We created an outside experience, inside the new transparent volume.”

Monumental Catalpa trees soften the transition between the park and the reimagined building. Two former exhibition halls completed in the 1970s and ’80s now serve as home to an onsite brewery and food hall, while the new conservatory-style addition accommodates the café.

A rough, unpolished materiality composed of galvanized steel, raw aluminum, and interior meranti wooden panels draws upon archetypal Dutch greenhouse traditions. Mossy gray hues offset the industrial aesthetic, infusing a tone complementary to the “natural palette of the park,” Brader adds.
