Lasting impact requires constant evolution
We put capital to work in buildings and neighbourhoods that people love. We always keep an eye on the long game for our investors.
Sustainability
Shaping the cities of tomorrow with sustainable design, innovative materials, and intelligent, energy-efficient spaces that nurture both people and planet.
We believe in a holistic approach to limit the resource use and global warming and to mitigate climate risks. Our approach involves the design and construction of ultra-efficient, all-electric buildings, powered as much as possible with on-site renewable electricity, and reducing, reusing and recycling materials to cut the embodied carbon emissions to a minimum.
Best Roof of the year
At The Pulse of Amsterdam, an urban forest in the sky features a floating path, panoramic city views, and real impact: cooler temperatures, better water flow, and more biodiversity. It adds ecological value, forming a permanent green stepping stone between Amsterdam’s two biggest green zones: the Amstelscheg and the Amsterdamse Bos.
Edge secures International WELL Building Institute Concept Award
The transformation of EDGE Stadium showcases our commitment to sustainable innovation. By preserving and reusing the building’s original elements, we expanded the office space by 50% to 29,000 sq m, integrating a striking glass façade around its copper ‘heart’. This forward-thinking design has earned both WELL Platinum and BREEAM Excellent certifications.
EDGE receives the highest performance level of the R2S label
As the first Dutch national monument on track to become Paris-proof, the dsm-firmenich building combines its preserved historic structure with state-of-the-art sustainable technology. From solar-integrated façades to smart lighting, water-saving systems, and efficient HVAC, every detail contributes to achieving BREEAM Outstanding and the highest performance level of the R2S label.
Past and future, side by side
At ABN AMRO's future home base, we kept the original white tiled façade of the former office while upgrading it with a touch of natural and sustainable timber.
One of Germany's largest ice storage systems
At EDGE Friedrichspark, a massive ice storage systems helps achieve near-zero operational carbon. The system produces ice at night using renewable energy, then uses it for cooling during the day. By shifting demand away from carbon-intensive peak hours, it keeps the building comfortable and efficient all year round.
The base building at EDGE Amsterdam West operates energy neutral, powered by 6,000 sqm of rooftop and parking-deck solar panels generating 33.33 kWh/m² yearly. A heat and cold storage system delivers 18.69 kWh/m² on-site, supported by data dashboards that track and optimise performance in real time.
Health
Providing environments that promote well-being, with light, air, and space that support physical and mental health for everyone who uses them.
Unfolding the Walking Room and its first test run ever at EDGE Stadium
Can you imagine working, having a meeting, and walking, all while being at the office? Well now you can, at EDGE Stadium!
Physical exercise adds immense value to one’s wellbeing and health. Values that we as a company want to bring into people’s lives to help them reach their highest potential.
Social connection
Redefining workspaces as a buzzing club house, where creativity, culture, and individual health seamlessly come together.
EDGE hosts symphony orchestra De Philharmonie
Glad to have hosted symphony orchestra De Philharmonie as the first of many orchestras on our quest to redefine commercial office spaces as agents of social value.
While they’re taking a break this summer, we will be anticipating their wonderful melodies to grace our building again this September!
Creating sustainable buildings with future generations
We love to support initiatives involving the community to celebrate this vision. Recently, students from Snowsfield Primary School unleashed their creativity by painting nature-inspired murals on the hoardings of EDGE London Bridge. A thoughtful initiative led by the project's general contractor Mace.
Accountability
Driven by integrity, we transform visionary ideas into lasting impact.
