It was built for M. Büttinghausen, who set up his 'photographic studio' on the two upper floors. His name is displayed in mosaic on the frieze above the ground floor. The entire building is known as 'Gebouw Helios' and was constructed in the Art Nouveau style based on a design by architect G. van Arkel. The design was submitted in 1900 to the architectural competition at the Paris World Exhibition, where it won a bronze medal.The reliefs were created by artists Van den Bossche and Crevels. The building has been remodeled several times. The front facade faces the Spui; the side facade faces Voetboogstraat. Already in 1899, a narrow section of the facade was added to the right side of the staircase windows on Voetboogstraat. This side facade was thus widened. In 1903, the courtyard was covered, and in 1909 Van Arkel remodeled the interior into the 'Maison Ledeboer' lunchroom, which closed its doors as 'Formosa' in 1969.SPECIAL FEATURES- Private land;- 193 m², of which approximately 172 m² is on one level;- Lots of privacy and light;- Elevator;- Private rooftop terrace and shared rooftop terrace;- Separate storage box;- Shared bike storage;- Foundation repairs carried out in 1995;- The front section of the building is a national monument.
