Why an specialist for Drive Tower office?

Drive Tower is currently undergoing a large-scale transformation into a future-proof office building with a high-quality delivery standard. The office floors will feature suspended ceilings with energy-efficient LED lighting and motion sensors, induction units for heating, cooling and ventilation, and levelled floors with provisions for data cabling. Combined with floor-to-ceiling windows and generous ceiling heights, this creates a bright, open working environment with significant potential.

This type of building requires a thoughtful translation to your organisation.

As a tenant, you want every square metre to work. Not just in terms of the number of workstations, but also the right balance between focus and collaboration, logical routing, strong acoustics and a smart integration of building systems and technology. In practice, we see that decisions around layout, comfort and budget are closely connected and need to be made early to achieve the best result.

First Lines works entirely on the tenant’s side.

We help you make the right decisions from the very first viewing. From layout and fit-out to furniture and technical solutions. Independent from landlord or broker, and always focused on what works best for your organisation.

This ensures your office in Drive Tower is not only visually strong, but also functions seamlessly, is future-proof and fully aligned with your organisation’s ambitions and the potential of the building.

What does First Lines do for new tenants in Drive Tower?

Step 1 – Introduction & viewing

We schedule and guide the viewing. We coordinate with the landlord, make sure everything is prepared and walk through the space together. On site, we translate your requirements into what works here and what to watch out for.

Step 2 – Brief & workplace strategy

We gather the right input from your team and turn it into a clear, practical brief: number of workstations, required spaces and key priorities. No lengthy report, just a solid starting point.

Step 3 – Test fits per floor

We make it immediately clear what fits. Per (half) floor, we show how many workstations and spaces are realistically achievable, including smart layout options.

Step 4 – Interior & technical design

We develop the selected scenario into a concrete plan. Materials, layout, lighting and technical solutions are fully aligned with the building and the way your organisation works.

Step 5 – Budget, planning & delivery

We define the costs, guide the selection of contractors and manage the execution. You stay in control, we take care of the rest through to completion.

Practical questions about office fit-out in Drive Tower

When should we start designing our office?

Ideally, you start 6 to 9 months before your intended lease start date. This allows time for the brief, design, test fits, budgeting, tendering and execution. As Drive Tower is scheduled for completion in Q2 2026, starting early ensures a smooth transition from building delivery to office fit-out.

Do you also work on smaller floor areas, such as half a floor?

Yes. In Drive Tower, we typically work from approx. 386 m² (half a floor) and up. Whether you lease half a floor, a full floor or multiple levels, we create a layout and workplace concept that fits and can scale with your organisation.

Can you also do just a workplace study or test fit?

Absolutely. Some organisations first want insight into layout options and workstation numbers before committing to a lease. We can provide a stand-alone workplace study or test fit, which you can use in discussions with the landlord or broker.

Do you work with the landlord or brokers such as JLL or CBRE?

Yes. We coordinate closely with the landlord, brokers and building management on technical aspects, building constraints, regulations and planning. At the same time, we remain an independent advisor, working solely in your interest as the tenant.

Do you also support furniture selection and relocation?

Yes, we can manage the entire process, including furniture selection and procurement, AV solutions and relocation support. If you prefer support only in design or project management, we tailor our scope accordingly.

Making the most of Drive Tower

Drive Tower offers strong fundamentals: visibility, accessibility and high-quality amenities. It’s an excellent fit if you want to invest in employer branding and create a high-performance work environment. At the same time, the building requires smart decisions early on.

The curved façade and large glass surfaces create a strong identity, but also impact layout, daylight and efficiency. Without a well-thought-out plan, valuable space can be lost or comfort compromised. We translate these characteristics into a layout that actually works.

New office towers: opportunities and risks

Newly delivered towers like Drive Tower come with advanced systems for climate control, ventilation and energy performance. These systems often need time to be fine-tuned across seasons.

Without the right guidance, this can result in:

comfort issues
inefficient use of space
higher operational costs

We help you anticipate this. From technical alignment with the landlord to translating user feedback into practical adjustments during and after move-in. The result: fewer surprises and a workspace that performs from day one.

Why we look beyond Drive Tower

Drive Tower may be the right choice. But not always. In the same area, there are buildings that may offer:

a better cost structure
more flexibility for growth
a different level of comfort or identity

We compare Drive Tower with these alternatives based on layout potential, technical quality, services and total cost of occupancy.

So you don’t just choose a building. You choose the right solution.

Independent. Practical. On your side.

We are not a landlord or broker. We work exclusively for tenants. From first test fit to turnkey delivery, we guide you through every step, making sure your decisions are grounded, realistic and aligned with your organisation. Considering Drive Tower or another office in Amsterdam Zuidoost?
