Dutch Top, Amsterdam

[Margaret and Rijk Rietveld]

One of the models missing in our collection, was the 180 meter tall high-rise office building Dutch Top, that we designed a few years ago for AM . The building was proposed on the "E" location next to the Sloterdijk station in Teleport, Amsterdam.

The model was totally destroyed in transport on the way back to New York. So, we decided to reprint an improved version to put with our other buildings. Because all the buildings are on the same 1:400 scale, you can see how tall 180 meter is.

We never say that a project is dead, unless there is something built in it's place, so we list this project as dormant

Pictures of the print model can be found in the "Print Model Collection" thread.

As you can see, the exploded core that we are trying to get in the Alkmaar project (http://www.rietveldarchitects.com/showthread.php?t=28) was also experimented with in this project.
