Peeking at the Neighbors

In the past eight years that Strijp-T was redeveloped, the skyline of Strijp-S has also undergone significant changes. Cecile has captured this transformation in the years 2016-2024 in various photos, showing new buildings emerging each time:

This is how 'Block 59' (designed by diederendirrix architects), 'Block 63' (designed by Pauwert Architectuur B.V.) and 'Block 61' (designed by architecten|en|en) came about. Also, 'Donna' (designed by de bever architecten), the iconic 'Trudo Tower' (designed by 'Vertical Forest' by Stefano Boeri) and 'Haasje Over' (designed by VMX Architects) with the 'IBIS Powernest' by IBIS Power on the roof. During this period, 'Sixty5' (designed by diederendirrix architects) and 'NEXT' (designed by BINST ARCHITECTS) were completed, and the residential towers 'Bold' (designed by Kraaijvanger Architects), 'LUX Tower' (designed by KENK architecten) and 'FRITS' (designed by Orange Architects) were delivered.

Nowadays, it is also possible to 'Live on the Veem', by adding extra floors to the Veem building (designed by Caruso St John Architects Llp), revealing the artwork on the roof.

Finally, the highest point of 'Lighthouse', the tallest residential tower in Eindhoven (designed by De Zwarte Hond), was recently reached.

The only constant in all the changes was the presence of construction cranes. The symbol of economic development. This has led to the arrival of the light artwork by Hugo Vrijdag on the twin chimneys at Strijp-T, the creation of the Light Bulb Park with the arrival of Eindhoven Gym, the temporary location for 'artwork Gerard' by Andreas Hetfeld.

Thanks to Sietske Aussems from Braintours Eindhoven for the information about the names of the various buildings with their corresponding architectural firms.
