Roof Panorama

A large panorama photo is situated on NEMO’s roof. It shows you who designed which Amsterdam buildings. Which architects come from Amsterdam? Where are Amsterdam’s most famous buildings? How tall are they and who built them?

The green NEMO building, designed by Italian architect Renzo Piano, occupies a special place in Amsterdam. The roof offers visitors a stunning view over a large part of the city. The area around NEMO is developing rapidly. This is why NEMO wants to draw visitors’ attention to its own as well as the surrounding buildings. The Roof Panorama by city photographer Paul Fennis reveals Amsterdam’s architectural secrets to NEMO’s visitors. Fennis’ imposing photo, which is 7.5 metres wide, shows more than 120 buildings. The photo was the winning entry for the STARTGELD (seed money) competition organised by the Amsterdam City Council.
