Platform on new construction, renovation, restoration and transformation
Enjoying fresh air without city noise: that is what makes living in The Pulse of Amsterdam unique. This progressive new construction project on Amsterdam's Zuidas is designed with sustainability, quality of life and comfort in mind. With an 85-meter residential tower and a 90-meter hotel tower, The Pulse is a new eye-catcher in the city. In addition to housing and accommodation, the complex also offers space for hospitality, offices and cultural facilities. This makes it a versatile place where urban life comes together.
What makes this project special is the focus on greenery and sustainability. A pleasant interior garden and several roof terraces literally bring breathing space into the urban environment. These green areas not only enhance the appearance of the building, but also contribute to a healthy and pleasant living environment for residents and visitors.
The Pulse of Amsterdam also scores highly in terms of energy. Solar panels provide for the generation of renewable energy, ensuring that the building meets the strictest contemporary sustainability standards. Moreover, rainwater is collected and reused, further underlining its sustainable character. The project has been developed to be fully in line with Amsterdam's ambitions to grow in a climate-friendly manner.
Its location near the A10 makes this project especially challenging. Residents benefit from the proximity to major traffic routes, but are at the same time confronted with noise pollution. To address this problem, they opted for an innovative ventilation solution: the Duco Acoustic Panel 300. This sound-damping wall grille combines an optimal supply of fresh air with an impressive noise reduction of up to 17 dB. This creates a comfortable and healthy indoor climate, where residents do not have to choose between silence and ventilation. Fresh air flows in, while city noise stays outside.
Moreover, the integration of this solution was done in a clever way. The wall gratings were prefabricated into the wood frame construction (HSB) elements by VIANEN in Montfoort. This allowed the elements to be brought to the construction site as ready-to-use modules. This approach yielded not only time savings, but also high accuracy and quality. The choice of prefabricated construction fits perfectly within the progressive vision of the project.
The Pulse of Amsterdam sets a new standard for living and living in the city. It is a place where modern design, sustainability and comfort come together. Residents enjoy the luxury of a central location and amenities such as restaurants and culture around the corner. At the same time, they experience the peace and quiet that is so important for a healthy living environment.
The application of the Duco Acoustic Panel 300 demonstrates how technology and architecture reinforce each other to achieve optimal results. The project proves that it is possible to live in a busy urban environment without sacrificing health and quality of life.
The Pulse of Amsterdam is much more than a new construction project. It is an example of what urban renewal can look like in the future: green, sustainable and livable. Thanks to smart solutions such as the Duco Acoustic Panel 300, the house remains quiet and healthy. Thus the promise is fulfilled: enjoying fresh air without city noise.
