Development concept and built form

Bureau Lamar is planned as a waterfront mixed-use destination with several components on one plot. Seven separate office buildings are planned, each with its own architectural identity and interior treatment. Offices are designed as full single-tenant floor plates of around 12,000 sq ft, with approximately 13 ft ceilings and panoramic canal views. Each floor is intended for one occupier, without shared corridors or floor-level amenities between tenants.

The development also includes a hotel and dedicated retail space.
