Abstract
Families are an important factor in the liveability of neighbourhoods. As more and more families are leaving Amsterdam, innovative ideas are needed to reverse this
trend. In this graduation project a residential tower is proposed, an uncommon building form in the Netherlands, especially for this specific target group. With the alternative typology presented in this project, relatively more families will be able to stay in the city.
