The construction of the Emmasingelkwadrant in Eindhoven has begun. A new, green part of Eindhoven where industrial heritage and new construction go hand in hand. In the Vonderparkkwartier, part of this area development, LEVS is designing the Sophia and, together with KCAP, the Alexandra. Together with the other buildings in the ensemble, the two buildings form a U-shaped block on the new Victoriapark, good for 366 homes.
At sixty meters and 21 floors, the Alexandra on Vonderweg completes the city center at this point. The industrial past of the Emmasingelkwadrant is reflected in the choice of materials. The continuous balcony zone around the Alexandra, with a characteristic wooden ceiling, gives the building a strong horizontal articulation that refers to the modernity of Eindhoven. Continuous bands in the two buildings reinforce that horizontality. In the brickwork, the color palette creates coherence: light gray for the Alexandra, a green-gray shade for the Sophia.
