The ‘Crystal Court’ residential sculpture in Buitenveldert is the result of a competition held by the municipal authorities in 2001 among developers and their architects.
A total of 36 high-end, deluxe apartments were built near the Zuidas business district. The complex comprises 4 building blocks on an underground car park around an enclosed glass atrium. The facades are finished with natural stone and Western Red Cedar.
This extraordinary project was awarded the Amsterdamse Nieuwbouwprijs (Amsterdam New Building Prize) in 2010.
