Rietveld Architects was one of the first firms invited to help transform a century-old industrial wharf on Cruquius, a peninsula along Amsterdam's eastern waterfront, into a multi-use neighborhood with ample green space. The firm was commissioned to design the headquarters for Amvest, the company spearheading the development, along with two 40-unit apartment buildings, consisting of condos and rentals.
To take full advantage of the site, Rietveld Architects conceived a series of glass and white-glazed brick structures that offer sweeping views of the water and city. A parking garage was placed underground, so that the area would have an inviting waterfront boardwalk. On the ground level of the developer's office building, a bistro with a soaring ceiling doubles as a cafeteria for employees, while providing the site destination appeal.
Inventive thinking characterizes much of the office building's interior architecture. To enhance company communication, all of the offices are situated on the same floor, while conference rooms are located in the mezzanine for convenient public access.
