Text description provided by the architects. Hourglass is a striking addition to Amsterdam's Zuidas district, serving as a natural connection between the existing Zuidas area and the emerging Knowledge Quarter anchored by the Vrije Universiteit (VU), its medical center (AUmc), and the Amsterdam South train station. This mixed-use high-rise integrates seamlessly into its urban context, combining offices, long-stay apartments, retail spaces, and a public restaurant and café. Strategically located opposite the new courthouse, Hourglass houses one of the country's largest law firms and activates the area with its multifunctional program and elegant design.
