Built between 1994 and 1997 this is a building of 100 units for the elderly. It is located west of Amsterdam. According to Wikiarchitecture the city was experiencing massive growth and dense construction along with the reduction of community green spaces. The challenge was to make a building capable of blocking construction noises, respect the quality of life of its occupants, utilize a minimal footprint and provide good natural lighting.
