Our DNA

And so it happened. Rotterdam quality.

The short version: Rotterdams. The longer version: Bim&Beyond is a Rotterdam-based firm, founded in 2014, that is part of Kraaijvanger Architects. Brothers Evert and Herman Kraaijvanger founded Kraaijvanger Architects in 1927. In a carpenter's workshop with an incredible eye for detail and materials. During the reconstruction the firm grew rapidly and today Kraaijvanger is a group of three independent companies: Kraaijvanger Architects, Bim&Beyond and Plotvis visualizations.

We are all B Corps. These are companies that meet the highest social and environmental standards for people and planet. Companies that arrange their profit motive to the collective interest of society. And we still do it with the same mentality: unbridled dreaming and then making it achievable. That is our DNA.

After its founding in 2014, Erwin Spuybroek took over as director November 2018. He cherishes the vision of Kraaijvanger and Bim&Beyond and believes in BIM as the next step for the construction industry. Together, we continue to build a circular world. At the end of 2019, K-support changed its name to Bim&Beyond.

"Architects, sculptors, painters, all of us must return to the Crafts. Art as a profession does not exist.
There is no real difference between the Artist and the Craftsman.
The task of the Artist is an intensified version of the task of the craftsman." (Walter Gropius)
