The Erick van Egeraat office tower, also known as The Rock, is part of an expressive high- rise urban development south of Amsterdam, named Zuidas. The ambitious programming of a vibrant, high-density mixture of offices, housing, retail and public space, designed by nine international architects, all contribute to an exceptional development of metropolitan scale. The Erick van Egeraat office tower challenges this masterplan further and proposes to create an explicit tactile and emotional experience out of the stacked block structure. Both an innovative composition of shifted volumes and a transformation from a light to heavy materialisation, it creates an expressive landmark which appears different from every angle. The lower part is transparent to allow light deep into the building and stimulate interaction with the direct surroundings. The upper part is characterized by natural stone layers composed in a façade pattern which creates a variety of openings and panoramic views.
