The new city hall in Helmond is a multifunctional building that serves as both a town hall and a central space for meeting and connection. Distinguished by its transparent and inviting design, the building features clear architecture and dynamic lines, drawing inspiration from Helmond’s rich textile history. By consolidating municipal services previously spread across four locations, the city hall brings together public services, administrative offices, and local government in one central and efficient location.

The interior design further enhances this sense of unity and accessibility, showcasing timeless designs by Artifort. The organic Swamp chairs and sleek 070 sofa offer optimal comfort in reception areas and in-between zones, where employees and visitors gather informally. In the meeting rooms, the height-adjustable Jima Highback chairs and iconic Tulip Midi armchairs provide a blend of ergonomics and style, perfect for both quick discussions and extended meetings. The selected designs combine aesthetics with functionality, complementing the open and accessible feel of the city hall.
