Joolz
Year: 2016
Location: Amsterdam North
Edible: No
Product: 120m2 Tropical and Desert Garden,
Outdoor Plants
At the new headquarters office of Joolz, we desig-
ned and constructed three greenhouses with
tropical plants in the middle of the office. During
the design stage of architectural agency Space
Encounters we were involved in an early stage to
think about water management, climate control,
typification of greens and the greenhouse design.
Especially for this project, we build a waterbasin for
the plants to give access to water whenever they
are thirsty.

Amsterdam
Year: 2014-now
Location: Amsterdam West
Edible: No
Product: IndoorPlants, LightTherapy
The old IBM office building has been converted
into an incubator for start-ups and entrepreneurs.
Inside the building there are numerous plants of all
types that decorate the floors, tables and ceilings.
All require little maintenance due to our smart irri-
gation systems. The building is 50 by 50 meters
so the heart of the building doesn’t have any direct
daylight. To keep plants alive we have installed LED
lights.

At the edge of the pond you will find a small mint

has fruit trees, shrubs with fruits, grapevines and
an edible flower meadow. The green on the roof is
fertilized with homemade worm compost from the
Worm Hotel. The 10 chickens are fed using scraps
from the kitchen, providing fresh eggs for immedi-
ate use. Everything from the roof is recycled and
used on the premises by the kitchen staff.

Zoku
Year: 2016
Location: Amsterdam East
Edible: Yes
Product: Rooffood Garden, Subtropical green-
house, IndoorPlants
In spring 2016, Zoku’s long-stay hotel opened its
doors in Amsterdam. The beautiful rooftop garden
and indoor planting is provided by us to make
their guests’ stays extra special and comfortable.
On the rooftop, we have integrated the crops and
plants to go with the exterior design. We accomplis-
hed this by designing special furniture to match the
architectural style of the building and of Concrete
Architects. The furniture also permits a clever irriga-
tion system so the herbs can continue to look and
taste nice and fresh.

WOW
Year: 2015
Location: Amsterdam West
Edible: No
Product: Grasheuveldak
The ‘grashillroof’ is an in-house innovation,
which was first showcased on the roof of WOW
Amsterdam. This technical greenroof innovation
was developed together with the municipality of
Amsterdam. The ‘grashillroof’ is a sloping roofs-
cape, similar as in a natural landscape. Due to the
hilly landscape, water fields arise with the aim to
attract other types of insects and birds. The hills are
created by the use of lightweight recycled polys-
tyrene. This makes it the first roof that can store
water and attract biodiversity within the constructi-
onal lightweight boundaries of a roof.

Kavel 2b
Year: 2017
Location: Amsterdam West
Edible: No
Product: Roofgardens and terraces
This building designed by MVRDV, a renowned
Dutch architectural firm, has a desire to become
the first renovated building that consists of 80%
biobased materials. We designed and engineered
the greenroofs and green courtyard. Especially
for this project a biobased greenroof solution was
designed, built solely of biobased materials.

Exterior
Year: 2017
Location: Amsterdam West
Edible: No
Product: Vertical green
The ‘Voortuinen’ is a residential building consisting
of fourteen floors, all apartments have a private
terrace with their own ‘front yard’. We designed
and engineered the 122 trees that fill up the ter-
races. The roof is part of this design, where it will
be possible to generate energy and store water at
the same time. The stored water in the waterbasin
on the roof will be used to irrigate the numerous
trees. A selection of 6 trees were made to fit the
tough circumstances of this architecture. Overall,
a project that shows how the future of architecture
will look like.

Product: 200m2+ Rooffood garden
With our ‘Full service fresh concept’ we comple-
tely unburden our customers by not only delivering
fresh edibles, but also placing, checking, watering
and collecting crops.
Michelin star quality
In 2013 we started experimenting with a new kit-
chen garden system on the roof of the NH Barbizon
Hotel to be used for the chefs in the kitchen of
Michelin star restaurant Vermeer. Together with
Lindenhoff Open Tuin we developed a full service
system, where the plants are nursed in the green-
house near Amsterdam, then delivered and placed
into the roof system. After harvesting by the chefs
the crates are removed, replaced and recycled by
the Lindenhoff. This makes it a closed loop system.

“How we make it easy and nice to grow plants
inside? We take a pickle jar, we Click&Wick a plant.
We fill the jar with water and place the plant inclu-
ding Wick in the jar. Put it in front of a window, just
grow and clean the air! You’ll notice when the plant
needs water, the wick does the rest.”

Full service fresh concept
Together with social enterprise Lindenhoff we deliver
a full service concept. The edible flowers, sprouts,
vegetables and herbs are grown in the greenhouse
of the Lindenhoff by organic principles. Lindenhoff,
being a social enterprise, trains and guides people
with a distance to the labor market. The Lindenhoff
people not only grow the greens but also deliver
and place the crates in the roof or indoor system.
They check the crops at the customer location, as
well as the water and light conditions. Crates that
have been fully harvested by the chefs, are taken
back to the greenhouse for recycling.
