This Historic Church Also Operates as the Imbull Flipit.com Office

Imbull, home of Flipit.com (a global discount coupon site), is an affiliate marketing company based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Flipit.com started growing at such a rapid rate that Imbull decided to move its office to a larger space to accommodate growth. Many other companies had their eye on this gorgeous historic church called the Oranjekerk (Dutch for "orange church"), that was leasing out its renovated space to offices.
The Oranjekerk is a Protestant church located in the bustling South of Amsterdam region, De Pijp. Apart from housing 50+ Imbull employees, this gorgeous Baroque-styled building, which was constructed at the end of the 19th century, still operates as a church as well. We're lucky that we get to see our own work revolution unfold in such a monument that was the result of the Industrial revolution, organs humming in the background and all.
