Project Id	3702
Project Name	Lichttoren Eindhoven, Netherlands
Description	The Lichttoren (Light tower) is a former factory building in Eindhoven. It has a heptagonal, white tower, designed in the functionalist style. From 1911 the Light Tower was used as a factory for Philips, a light bulb manufacturing company in Eindhoven. Later, the headquarters of the Philips light division were established in the building. The building is a national monument. In 2009 it has been converted into a living, working and leisure complex. Now it houses residential penthouses / lofts, offices, hotel, commercial spaces and a restaurant. Homes were called "lofts" - a new concept for the Netherlands at that time. This meant that users did not buy or rent a home, but rather one or more "spatial modules". The concrete skeleton of the Light Tower was the basis, this "divided" the building into modules of 7.20 long by 7.20 wide by 4.40 meters high.
