The North ventilation building of the Maastunnel in Rotterdam is an expressionist structure completed in 1942 by architect Ad van der Steur. Designed to serve the ventilation systems of the Maastunnel beneath the Maas River, the building exemplifies the bold, sculptural aesthetic of expressionist architecture, characterized by dramatic forms and dynamic spatial composition. Now a protected Rijksmonument, it remains a distinctive example of functional modernist design applied to essential infrastructure.
