Kunsthal KAdE is located on Eemplein in Amersfoort.This building, designed by Neutelings Riedijk architects of Rotterdam, houses the Kunsthal KAdE and the Eemland Library.
The large reading room in the library was designed as a covered piazza that extends the public space of the square into the building. On top, the Eemland Archives hover like a silver box. A semi-sunken art museum with an enfilade of smaller galleries is located directly on the square. The building is topped by a crown of silver shed roofs for the art school in the attic story, where northern light falls into the studios. The façade of the roof volume is studded with 2,400 small and large aluminum hemispheres
