From cutting-edge fashion to exceptional jewelry and unique works of art-here you will discover an impressive mix of established names and emerging talent.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"869\" data-end=\"1222\">What sets X BANK apart is the way stories take center stage. Each item has its own background, a maker, a vision. Think famous designers like Viktor &amp; Rolf, but also innovative labels like 1\/OFF and Atelier Reserv\u00e9. Precisely this combination makes for a dynamic and surprising experience, where you discover something new every time.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"869\" data-end=\"1222\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-82870\" title=\"x-bank-amsterdam4\" src=\"https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/x-bank-amsterdam4.jpg\" alt=\"x-bank-amsterdam4\" width=\"1700\" height=\"1133\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/x-bank-amsterdam4.jpg 1700w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/x-bank-amsterdam4-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/x-bank-amsterdam4-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/x-bank-amsterdam4-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/x-bank-amsterdam4-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/x-bank-amsterdam4-18x12.jpg 18w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/x-bank-amsterdam4-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/x-bank-amsterdam4-500x333.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1700px) 100vw, 1700px\" \/><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1224\" data-end=\"1616\">The store is located in the former Kas Bank building from 1908, an architectural masterpiece and, at the time, Amsterdam's first concrete building. This historic setting is a powerful contrast to the modern designs you'll find there. Since its transformation by Sircle Collection in 2015, the building has become a creative hub where design, culture and innovation come together.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p data-start=\"1224\" data-end=\"1616\"><em>\u201cX BANK is not a store, but a living museum where the future of Dutch design can already be seen today.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p data-start=\"1618\" data-end=\"2018\">With more than 180 Dutch designers, the selection is unprecedentedly wide. From accessible items of a few euros to exclusive pieces of tens of thousands of euros-X BANK proves that design is for everyone. Moreover, this is not just about buying, but also about meeting. Chances are that during your visit you will meet one of the makers yourself, which makes the experience personal and inspiring.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2020\" data-end=\"2291\">This makes X BANK not just a store, but a stage for Dutch talent. A place where creativity becomes visible, tangible and experienceable. Just as you would expect in a city that is bustling with innovation and design.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\n    <div class='LeesOokSection'>\n    <p class='introleesook'>READ ALSO<\/p>\n    <hr class='locline2'> \n    <a href='https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/en\/nieuws\/abonneer-je-op-amsterdam-magazine\/'>\n    <div class='LeesOokBox'>\n     <div class='locatiebox'>\n     <div class='leftLeesOok'>\n          <img class='imgbox' src='https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Papeneiland.jpg' alt='Akrt' \/>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class='RechtsLeesOok leesook'>\n     <p style='margin-top: -2px; color:red; letter-spacing: 0.5px; font-weight: 400 !important; font-size: 13px;' class='categorietitel-sug'><\/p>\n     <h3 style='text-align:left; font-size: 1.3em'  class='relatedh3'>Subscribe to Amsterdam Magazine and receive 4 editions!<\/h3>\n     <span class='WijkTekst LeesOokTekst'>English-language Amsterdam Magazine is all about fun things to do, discovering new places and the city's tastemakers.
