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 />
