De Rotterdam

Completed in 2013, De Rotterdam is the latest project by renowned architect Rem Koolhaas and his studio OMA. With a gross floor area of 162,000 square meters, this large mixed-use development in the Netherlands consists of three transparent towers rising from a six-story pedestal at Wilhelmina Pier on the south bank of the Maas River. Often described as a "city within a city," the complex accommodates around 5,000 people each day.

As a result, sustainability was a key consideration in the design of De Rotterdam, helping it earn a reputation as one of the Netherlands' greenest buildings. All offices are energy class A and are powered by rooftop solar panels and nine wind turbines, while water from the Maas River is used to heat and cool the building. Complementing these systems, the building's KONE elevators return energy back to the grid, further contributing to its overall efficiency.
