OMRT and 3stone are building on a year of close collaboration on landmark projects. These range from large-scale redevelopments to inner-city residential towers and metropolitan masterplans. Both parties have decided to deepen their partnership.
The combination of OMRT’s AI-driven parametric design expertise and 3stone’s deep knowledge of the investment market and transaction structuring makes it possible to realize plans that are not only of the highest quality but also truly deliverable and financeable.
Integrated Approach
On projects where design and financial feasibility must align from the outset, OMRT and 3stone act as preferred partners. OMRT leads on design intelligence and optimization, while 3stone ensures that the plan is aligned from the very first sketch with investor requirements and financial parameters. This integrated approach accelerates decision-making, shortens development timelines, and increases the likelihood of successful realization.
Andreja Andrejević, Founder of OMRT:
“With parametric models, we generate and optimize a vast number of design variants at an early stage. This allows us to directly manage aspects such as space utilization, energy performance, and regulatory compliance. In combination with 3stone, this creates a process where technical quality and feasibility are assessed simultaneously.”
Renaldo Thewissen, Partner at 3stone:
“Every technical decision has a financial consequence and an impact on market liquidity. We also factor in fiscal structuring and ground lease structures. With our models, we benchmark every choice and reveal where true value is created. Integrated thinking from the very start is essential for projects to move beyond the drawing board and into reality.”
Practical Results: Nieuw Legmeer, Amstelveen
A tangible example of this collaboration is the Nieuw Legmeer area development in Amstelveen. For Prosper Vitae, the largest landowner in the area, OMRT and 3stone analyzed the optimal layout for plots encompassing more than one thousand homes. Within just a few weeks, more than twenty thousand plan alternatives were analyzed, covering elements such as urban design, unit allocation, parking, and sustainability. This provided a strong foundation for further planning in close collaboration with the municipality.
Last year, the municipality adopted a revised strategic development framework for Legmeer, setting out the vision for a new district with over 4,400 homes. The recently approved urban design plan and design quality guidelines now offer a clear picture of how this new neighborhood in Amstelveen will take shape in the coming years, important milestones for the city and its residents.
George van der Vlugt, Founder of Prosper Vitae:
“At Prosper Vitae, we are always looking for ways to innovate in area development. The collaboration with OMRT and 3stone is without a doubt innovative. They brought structure and clarity to a process with countless variables and helped us quickly understand and assess decisions ranging from urban design to unit allocation and fiscal structures. This allowed us to make faster, more confident decisions and shape the development plan in a way that not only benefits future residents but also provides a clear and comprehensive view of the financial opportunities and risks throughout the entire process.”
Looking ahead
Nieuw Legmeer demonstrates how technical excellence and financial discipline can reinforce one another. With this extended partnership, OMRT and 3stone offer a scalable model for complex urban redevelopment challenges, focused on deliverability, access to capital, and successful realization.
