Compact, complete, and super cozy, each serviced apartment is fully kitted out to the highest standard.
The serviced apartments in the MAKERSTOREN offer you all the comfort of home, plus that little bit extra (check the facilities here). Step out your front door and you are in the middle of all the maker’s action. This building is always in motion and there is a whole network waiting for you. Here you will be immersed and challenged. Make the MAKERSTOREN your temporary home. Our apartments are available from 1 to 6 months and suitable for maximum 2 people.
With MARKITDOWN you don’t have to be bored for a moment. Follow the agenda for our events and get connected with makers, musicians and artists. But you don’t always have to be “switched on”. In our hub on the ground floor you can enjoy a relaxed breakfast, lunch, dinner or a snack. Feel at home.

This innovation lab invites new developments and collaborations, supported by sponsors.
Explore the manufacturing process beyond the borders and get started with innovative machines such as 3D printers and scanners to digitize your project. With plotters and (textile) printers, you can print large format posters and photos in professional quality. CNC and laser cutters or vacuum machines, here you will find everything you need to create new and unique products.
If your company specializes in the development of advanced machines, join us in the experiment and register via our sign up form.

Together with the MAKERSTOREN we are travelling towards our ultimate destination: a unique and purpose-built tower dedicated to makers.
Here, MARKITDOWN will invite you to take a seat and kick back with a menu of local goodies in our café on the ground floor.
MARKITDOWN also puts the spotlight on everything that motivates makers. Ready for new input? MARKITDOWN creates a trail of connection between makers and makers, media and audience right through the building. We leave no opportunity or place unused to create moments that stimulate you an the the creative process.
In the meantime, keep an eye on Instagram. MARKITDOWN is on the move.

THE CREATORS
“You create together and together we make the place”
THE VISIONARY
Duncan Stutterheim
“At the final frayed edges of the city we will bring a forgotten area to full bloom.”
THE DEVELOPER
Ian Gray
“A location that offers space, inspires makers and where there is always something happening.”
THE CREATIVE
Babeth Rammelt
“I see the MAKERSTOREN as planting a seed. It demands a visionary outlook to go and explore here.”
THE PIONEER
Petra Blaisse
“Their whole career makers are in need of that one right place.”
THE FACILITATOR
Bart Blankman
“With the Makerstoren we maximize the experience of the makers, residents and visitors.”
“Makers play an increasingly bigger role in finding sustainable solutions."
We respect and facilitate this by offering them a building with a solid and sustainable foundation: the MAKERSTOREN: energy-efficient and with an eye for greenery, from design and construction to habitation and use.
The MAKERSTOREN is a Smart Building. This means that the building thinks along and does what it takes to save energy. We are also not connected to the gas and we go for the maximum in terms of insulation. This way we are not only more economical on the environment, but we also make the monthly energy costs much cheaper. The MAKERSTOREN takes care of you, and together with you we take care of the planet
sun blocking triple glass in the façade ensures a higher insulation value and therefore lower energy consumption. In the summer less cooling is needed and in winter
less heating is required..
Good for you, better for the planet. The workspaces on the South façade are provided with interior blinds in the form of large curtains by Petra Blaisse.
“Inside and outside. The MAKERSTOREN also goes for green. To achieve this we collaborate and consciously handle our environment with care. This is how we optimise the opportunities that a pioneer building like this has to offer.”
Petra Blaisse – Sustainable design advisor of the Makerstoren
MARK
The MAKERSTOREN is not connected to main gas supply. Our current starting point is heat/cold generation through a mono source..
15 car parking spaces will be equipped with an EV-charging station, 10 car parking spaces are prepared with a, empty lead. The 200 parking spaces for two-wheelers will also have EV-charging stations: 60 for e-bikes and 10 for e-scooters.
Smart buildings think along with you. Innovative, automated systems “read” the use of the building. In this way we optimize the available resources, we save energy and we create a pleasant climate for the user. Not only sustainable, but also economical.
MARK
There will be greenery on the facades and along the roof and balcony edges and we will create a herb garden for tenants and local catering establishments.
Green on the roofs and along the facades makes the MAKERSTOREN bee, butterfly, and bird friendly. Around the building green is provided at ground level, alternating closed pavement with herb gardens and vegetable patches, to be used by the HORECA in the MAKERSTOREN.
MARK
Rainwater is discharged by delay and can be used for example to water the greens on the facades.
MARK
One third of the floors is executed in wood (CLT) instead of concrete and wood (CLT) will be used in the serviced apartments exclusively too.
“Sustainability in the materilisation … the heavy floor load with a hybrid load baring main supporting structure and the right balance in the finish for an optimal building.”
Allard Meine Jansen – Architect of the Makers Tower
