Netherlands-based architech firm MRDV’s 'Alphabet Building' is a terrific structure designed specially for [mid-sized firms and agencies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/n2-building).

The building consists of English characters, excluding the letters “I” and “Z.” Situated at the heart of Amsterdam, the Alphabet Building is a marvelous example of urban architecture that features [spacious loft-like units](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/banda-agency). The spacious office blocks have high ceilings and are constructed from [concrete, aluminum and steel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/david-chipperfield-architects).

Each letter of the alphabet represents an office block that can be sold either individually or as a series of letters. According to MRDV, design studio Thoink has booked the top floor of Alphabet Building that extends from the letters“A” to “F.”
