The Laan van Spartaan, a unique project for City of Amsterdam. The beautiful design by Rob van Dijk provided a comprehensive project for us and the executing party Van der Tol B.V. - Gardeners and City Landscaping.
The entire project was completely developed in both 3D and 2D. This excluded possible surprises and created a clear picture for the client. In this project, no less than 33 tons of steel were used. That may seem a lot, but compared to, for example, brick edges, it is a saving of approximately 210 tons. This is a considerable weight for a roof garden.
Corten steel is a durable material that requires little maintenance and is highly resistant to vandalism. The material is the prefab solution for making border edges and planters. The material is circular as it is fully recyclable. As a result, 30% of the steel we use is sourced out of scrap.
