Lofts by DE Amstel

Amstelkwartier, Amsterdam (NL)

Its undulating white concrete facade distinguishes Lofts by the Amstel as an eye-catcher at the waterside of Amstelkwartier, a new mixed-use district in Amsterdam along the Amstel river.

Accommodating six different apartments, the building was developed independently by a collective of private owners, who each occupy a whole floor of 160m2. They each designed their ideal apartments, which range from a family home to an open loft, and were free to customize the ceiling height within multiples of two steps.

The striking combination of ultra-white prefabricated concrete in combination with the dark grey basalt plinth results in a dynamic exterior that looks attractive from both the water and land.
