Zaansehelden

Mooneye visualized the exterior for the Zaansehelden project.
A lot of High-rise and Green Plan was a challenge.
In collaboration with Architects and landscape architects, we started to look carefully at the right balance.

The Zaanse Helden consist of several apartment buildings, a parking garage and a roof garden.
Approximately 607 homes are being realized in the plan, which vary in housing type, size and are divided into rent, purchase and social rent.
On behalf of the municipality, aldermen Krieger and Mutluer signed the anterior agreement in the spring of 2019 for the construction of this project on Mahogany at the Vrodest location.

The name De Zaanse Helden – in the city, in the green – refers to the rich history of Zaandam with its many different mills.
Each residential tower gets the name of one of the mills from the area.
The only wood saw mill that still stands at its original location, the Hero Joshua, has since been purchased by the development combination and is involved in the plan by a pedestrian bridge across the Houtveldweg.
