PHILIPPE DE BAECK and RUDY STEVENS, the driving force behind the TECTUM publishing company, have produced this superb book, Lofts of Amsterdam, in close collaboration with FRITS DE KOUSEMAEKER. It is the second in a series of seven on lofts in various European capitals. Since TECTUM is rapidly building a reputation with publications on architecture, interiors, design and related topics, it has taken over responsibility for this series from CONDOMINIUM project developers, which took the initiative of putting Lofts of Antwerp onto the market in 1999. In Lofts of Amsterdam, TECTUM provides yet more proof of the high quality of the publications it represents.
FRITS DE KOUSEMAEKER: 35 years of experience as an estate agent, for some time as a partner in DTZ ZADELHOFF. He has already published five books on this subject.
RUBY STEVENS: founder and business manager of CONDOMINIUM, Antwerp's market leader in the development of industrial buildings into lofts.
