The RVS building is an astonishing piece of architecture, typical of the Art Deco movement of the 1930s. It was designed by Dutch architect Duijnstee. At the time it was referred to as ‘liner style’. You can see why. The letters at the entrance, RVS, stand for the insurance company Rotterdamsche Verzekering Societeit, for which the building served as the transatlantic liner,... erm, headquarters.
