Through more than four hundred apartments spread over two residential towers. Through office space with large, flexibly divisible floor areas in the low-rise building. Through a tall, see-through mixed zone at street level. And through high-quality hospitality and retail located in the plinth.

The Modernist offers spacious offices with plenty of natural light. Workplaces with views over the city where the Rotterdam dynamic can be experienced. Want to know the rest? More will be revealed early in 2026.
