Terrace Tower Amsterdam
Amsterdam, November 10th 2021, DELVA Landscape Architecture / Urbanism – The iconic, high-quality architecture of Bjarke Ingels Group, is enhanced by the generous green roof terraces designed by DELVA. As stated by Het Financieele Dagblad, Holland’s most important business newspaper, to remain attractive, the Zuidas must become ‘friendlier, more diverse and greener’.
Scientific research shows having access to green outdoor spaces significantly increases employee well-being and productivity. To this end, planting is rapidly changing from a cost item to an economic revenue model. With the Terrace Tower and soon De Puls, DELVA is taking the lead in making the roofs on the Zuidas greener.
The terraces:
An inventive roof structure consisting of a basic substrate layer and 3D-printed pots for trees and shrubs. Grasses and perennials form a green carpet along and between the tiles. Smaller current trees in the centre are framed by larger birch, cherry and pine trees.

DELVA Landscape Architecture / Urbanism
Unprecedented Landscapes For People, Nature And The Economy. We Are DELVA.
Our open space is indispensable and belongs to everyone. That is why, at DELVA, we turn the design process upside down and radically choose the landscape as the basis.
Development is used as a means to densify and greenify. Each project explores a new and multifunctional meaning for the landscape. Which, through integral collaboration, will be linked inseparably with buildings, technology, policy and financial viability. We do this because we are convinced that only generous gestures from the landscape bring us closer to a living environment that we all dream of. We create unprecedented landscapes for people, nature and the economy. We are DELVA.
DELVA was founded in 2008 and has grown into a leading agency in the field with a team of 25 enthusiastic professionals in the heart of Amsterdam. A team that focuses on continuously giving meaning to the new function of landscape and enhancing the experience of it.
DELVA is led by its founder Steven Delva (BE), Emiel Swinnen (BE), Sander van den Bosch (NL) and Jeroen Jacobs (NL). Based in Amsterdam (NL), the team of landscape architects, urban planners, architects, designers and cultural technicians works on major current challenges such as sustainable urbanization, nature development and the changing role of the public domain. A multidisciplinary approach is central to this, which is characterized by co-creation and collaboration.
