This project, located in the Ravel district, is part of a vibrant, family-friendly, and car-free area designed to promote community and sustainability.

Nominated!
With the addition of an extra floor to the “Loft Office” project in Houthavens, we also upgraded the south-facing facade, integrating 237 solar panels with a total capacity of 68,000 watt-peak, producing an estimated 54,129 kWh annually. This provides a substantial contribution to the building’s energy needs. The project has now been nominated for the “Future Energy Awards.”

4 WEEKS!
The contractor has four weeks remaining to complete the final work on The Pulse. The project's handover is scheduled for November 15th. After that, tenants will likely have time to move in, with the project expected to open to the public at the start of 2025. We are eager to see how the public will experience and respond to this exciting new development.

Let’s MEET!
An evening with Edwin Oostmeijer:
We are going to be neighbors! Let me introduce myself. My name is Edwin Oostmeijer. I am developing residential buildings in Amsterdam. Next to the KinderCampus at the Zuidas, project Tic Tac Toe will be being built in 2025.
A fifty-meter-high residential building in a sparkling pink color. Situated at the Hector Berliozlaan our building Tic Tac Toe will offer space for 75 affordable rent apartments for families as well as community facilities like a café and places to meet or work. Tic Tac Toe's design fits entirely into the environmental plan, except for the building-related outdoor spaces on the roof. In doing so, we exceed the total meters allowed for residential use to a small extent.
Are you curious about our building?
Might you want to live here? Do you have ideas about filling in the plinth? We will be happy to show you the design of Tic Tac Toe on Monday, September 30, 2024 and are looking forward to your reaction. Hope to see you soon!
