a vibrant new neighborhood

Cluster 7 is part of the redevelopment of Amsterdamse Poort in Zuidoost. The project will deliver 660 new homes and 15,000 m² of retail space, reshaping the area into a lively urban district, where green encourages cohesion across the masterplan.

connection through landscape

The concept was to turn Cluster 7 into a welcoming, human-scaled environment where architecture and greenery work hand in hand. By weaving green corridors through courtyards and rooftop landscapes, we created spaces that encourage relaxation, play, and community while softening the density of the new urban fabric.
