Terrace Tower

In Kop Zuidas between Europaboulevard and Gelrestraat (next to Motel One), a new building named Terrace Tower is realised. As well as office space, the building is also a flagship store, a professional photography studio and a company restaurant. The ground floor has a variety of purposes, including a store with a coffee corner and bicycle parking facilities. There is also a car park in the basement.

Staggered roofs

Terrace Tower has a unique design: staggered roofs in the shape of a staircase run down the side of the building, with balconies constructed on these ‘stairs’. To make this design a reality, a special structure was required incorporating a heavy, staggered concrete core, special connections from which the storeys are suspended and slanted columns in the front and rear facades. At the front of the building there will be a publicly accessible green area, while at the back a series of green roof terraces climb up the building to give the offices and the surrounding area a high-quality look and feel. The building has 13 above-ground storeys and two underground storeys (the car park).

Realisation

The building was designed by the Danish architectural firm BIG | Bjarke Ingels Group, the developer responsible is C2 Vastgoed BV and the construction work will be executed by contractor J.P. van Eesteren. Other contributing parties include Inbo, Van Rossum Raadgevende Ingenieurs, Brink Management/Advies, Techniplan Nieman Raadgevende Ingenieurs and Delva Landschapsarchitecten.

Sustainability

Terrace Tower is striving for the BREEAM Excellent rating, which means the building must be optimally sustainable and the construction must take the surrounding area and residents fully into account.
