The triangle in the building of the provincial house of Antwerp symbolizes the province as a driving force that brings parties together and realizes solutions and progress through decisiveness. Symbolism of the triangleThe upward triangle represents dynamism, movement, and the pursuit of a higher level—the province that not only supports but actively provides direction and decisiveness to institutions, municipalities, and citizens. This triangle is filled with a pattern of unequal surfaces, symbolizing the diversity of people, organizations, and services within the province. By embracing and bundling this diversity, the province brings unity and strength. Architectural meaningIn the provincial house, the triangular windows and facades are a playful yet conscious reference to this symbolism: they create a lot of light, avoid overheating, and emphasize the innovative and sustainable character of the building. The striking use of triangles in the facade and windows makes the provincial house a visually recognizable and vibrant landmark in Antwerp.Where does the symbolism come from?The triangle is also the starting point of the logo and the corporate identity of the province of Antwerp. Here it is filled with color fields that together represent a map, referring to the connecting and organizing character of the province. Diversity, strength, and cohesion are the core values that this shape embodies.
