A few weeks ago, I
posted about De Bijenkorf's building in Rotterdam, a building who's fate wasn't so kind.

Today, we have their store in Den Haag (also known as 's Gravenhage). Thankfully this fine example of the Amsterdam school still stands. The building, designed by Piet Kramer and built in 1926, and refurbished in 1962 and again in 1997 at which point most of the features removed in the earlier refurbishment where reinstated.
