The task for this competition was to design 250 apartments with additional 20,000 sf of commercial space and 300 parking spots on the Ponsteiger pier in the Houthaven. The project will be the landmark for the new development, giving the area an individual character.  Starting point for the design of the project was to create instead of a ‘mega building’ the concept of a mini bay system with different kinds of housing, which are recognized as one complex.
