ALL CHANGE<br />
AT I TOWER<br />
The departure of law firm Nauta Dutilh from I Tower<br />
next year means a lot of changes are on their way. WTC<br />
Amsterdam has advanced plans to turn the tower into<br />
a multi-tenant complex, focusing on smaller, growing<br />
companies looking for upwards of 1,000 square metres.<br />
The lobby is also being given a facelift and there will<br />
be more emphasis on places to meet and have a coffee<br />
and something to eat. People who are interested in<br />
taking space in the revamped tower will be able to find<br />
out more at the special marketing suite which will be<br />
placed in the lobby from the end of September. The<br />
suite is equipped with audio-visual equipment and can<br />
seat up to eight people. I-TOREN.NL<br />
Sculpture<br />
with attitude<br />
Showgirls, flower girls and queens... Karin van de Walle’s<br />
striking ceramic female sculptures are currently adding<br />
to the atmosphere in the central hall. Karin graduated<br />
from the St Joost School of Art in Breda in 1984 and since then has<br />
exhibited all over Europe. Her figures are a blend of all periods, countries<br />
and cultures and are defined in part by their hair, their shoes or<br />
their clothes. Karin says she is inspired by the avalanche of images and<br />
impressions she gleans from the internet and is not afraid to mix in<br />
classical sculptural themes. Some of her work also includes fertility<br />
symbols and some figures even appear as angels.<br />

YOUR GOOD HEALTH<br />
Do you have neck cramps from craning your<br />
neck at your computer? Or are you stiff from<br />
tension ahead of a crucial presentation? The Os-<br />
teopathy Health and Therapy Practice in A Tower<br />
is a relative newcomer to the WTC, but is on<br />
hand to deal with the typical problems which office<br />
workers might experience.<br />
Osteopathy is a manual therapy which aims to<br />
increase mobility and restore the self-healing<br />
abilities of the body. Complementary therapy<br />
deals with all stress-related complaints, helping<br />
patients get back to work more quickly.<br />
Rouslan Akperov, who trained in Britain and<br />
the Netherlands, and complementary therapist<br />
Mouhabbat Iousoupova, who studied physiotherapy<br />
in the Netherlands, can help you with<br />
neck, back and arm pain, RSI and burnout, to<br />
name just a few.<br />
‘People who sit behind a desk get neck problems<br />
and RSI,’ they say ‘Everyone knows they should<br />
move, but just standing up from time to time is<br />
not enough to feel good.’ The treatments are<br />
covered by the Dutch health insurance system.<br />
