Q RESIDENCES | AMSTERDAM
Arriving soon at one of Buitenveldert’s most prominent locations is a new residential complex: Q Residences. The northern high-rise Quartz building is a landmark, an iconic design from Studio Gang, one of the world’s most renowned architectural firms. The southern low-rise Qube completes the picture. Q Residences combines a perfect location with high-quality architecture. The new residential complex incorporates 248 homes, a beautifully laid out plaza between the buildings, space for catering, lifestyle and retail on the ground floor, and around 130 parking spaces in the underground parking garage.
THE ARCHITECTS
Q Residences is the first European project to be built by Studio Gang, the leading architecturel firm from Chicago. Studio Gang approaches architecture in an innovative way – social function and the way nature is treated in the city play a role in the design process, as well as aesthetics. All these elements come together in Q Residences: an urban sculpture with a cosmopolitan look. The well-known Dutch architectural firm Rijnboutt is the co-architect. Piet Oudolf is working together with Deltavormgroep on the interpretation of the plaza. And Studio Piet Boon is responsible for the housing layout and parts of the interior.
THE DEVELOPERS
Q Residences is typical of the working method of Kroonenberg Groep, which aims to create added value and extra quality. That’s why no ordinary residential tower is being built here on the Buitenveldertselaan, but a landmark of international stature. For the development of Q Residences, Kroonenberg Groep is working together with NEOO, which specializes in complex and multifunctional real-estate projects.
