The Tollens factory in Rotterdam, completed in 1952, exemplifies Dutch functionalism through the work of architects Van den Broek and Jo van den Broek. This industrial building demonstrates the modernist principles that characterized post-war Dutch architecture, with its emphasis on rational design and utilitarian form. Recognized as a Rijksmonument, the factory stands as an important example of early twentieth-century industrial functionalism in the Netherlands.
