Project Feature
This building designed by Rem Koolhaas has been conceived as a vertical city and it is the largest building in the Netherlands. With its extraordinary mix of functions and spectacular views over the Rotterdam skyline, it became the meeting place along the riverside. The curtain wall used employs several different solutions - all with high performance coating - including a fire resistant façade for the side facing the river. The fifth and six levels are extra high with a height of 5-6 m. Here the profiles are more muscular with a front view of 250 mm and a total depth of nearly 300 mm. The elements have intermediate mullions with front view matching that of the outer element mullions. Starting from the 6th floor, 3 towers rise to a maximum height of 151.3 m (496 ft). Each tower serves a different purpose: one residential, one commercial, the last a mixed-use facility with offices and a hotel. The surface treatment is natural anodized. The towers have 800 ventilation wings integrated into the mullions. CTBUH Best Tall Building Award Europe Winner 2014.
