Solving complex (housing) challenges, that is the real challenge of FIT. Development reaches so much further than just construction. It also comprehends accessibility, connection and mobility. It is about creating new concepts. In real estate development we have to look into the future. What kind of new user functions and wishes can we expect and how will they evolve? Who are our future clients and users? Can we offer residents shared facilities, like a gym, a swimming pool or other options? What is the best location for a lift or parking spaces?
We see a growing need for new housing concepts for the elderly, as well as affordable and flexible housing solutions for starters.
All these new influences we consider when starting a new real estate development. We certainly do not lose sight of sustainability. The use of the right materials and their lifespan is important to realize timeless and sustainable real estate.
For example, in Hekelingen we realized an apartment building based on courtyard living. This was achieved through a special building layout in two volumes with a courtyard garden inside. We also worked on a combination of homes in a nearby village, all within one barn volume. The starting point being different generations under one roof. The combination creates a two-sided building with different housing types. Also in South Holland we worked on a combination of upper and lower dwellings with a village character. In Eindhoven we respond to various housing needs from the area with the development of an apartment building. Here we focus on quality apartments and a combination of starters and movers.
Moreover, the successful merging of functions goes beyond real estate itself. FIT takes a strong interest in the surrounding area and society. We invest in communities and work together with local parties, because development should not only comprehend the building but also positively influence the complete environment.
