Silodam, Amsterdam, Modern residential complex in Houthaven, Netherlands
The Silodam building extends over the IJ river with colored facades containing 157 residences, offices, and commercial spaces within a ten-story structure.
The complex was constructed between 1995 and 2003 on a former breakwater, incorporating grain silos from 1896 near Amsterdam's western harbor area.
The architectural firm MVRDV created different apartment layouts to meet various housing preferences, reflecting the evolving social needs of Amsterdam's residents.
The structure features multiple access routes through galleries and corridors, connecting residential areas with shared facilities including a fitness center and library.
The building contains apartments of varying sizes arranged in distinct blocks, each with specific characteristics such as panoramic views or harbor-facing patios.

The architectural projects of Dutch architect Winy Maas, MVRDV co-founder, showcase modern design across Europe and Asia. His structures combine functionality with experimental forms: from Rotterdam's Markthal with integrated housing to the public art depot Boijmans. These buildings define cityscapes through innovative solutions for residential, cultural, and office spaces.
