Parking Vijzelgracht
The fully automatic underground Vijzelgracht garage is the largest of its kind in the Netherlands and has 270 parking spaces. It is located on top of the Vijzelgracht metro station in Amsterdam. The hollow space above the station has been used as a parking garage. Due to the size and accessibility of this space, the choice for a fully automatic underground parking system was obvious. The underground parking helps to reduce cars parked on the streets in the busy city centre, to make room for greenery, cyclists and pedestrians.

Entrance Cabins
Three small cabins are the only visible sign of the parking garage. Drivers leave their car in one of the cabins and the system takes care of the rest. The cab... More

VePa - Vision Urban Mobility
From Parking Spaces to Green Mobility Hubs
Urban parking spaces—often exceeding 500m² of asphalt allocated exclusively for vehicle storage—offer no provisions for pedestrians or urban activities. The VePa parking system is dedicated to tackle these inefficiencies, rethinking parking and charging, thereby reshaping the urban environment. This future cityscape is imagined in three designs for 2026, 2028 and 2030.
Beta Realities envisions a design catalogue to transform VePa’s parking towers into urban catalysts that revive existing parking lots and horizontal sealed surfaces, while offering sustainable parking and charging spaces for a better quality of life. The VePa parking tower creates a space-saving e-charging in... More

TPS- Tower Parking System
The Tower Parking System allows to park up to 70 vehicles in the space of three. The TPS is definitely the most efficient system when it comes to saving horizontal space and taking advantage of vertical space. The Tower is able to multiply the existing parking capacity more than 20 times, using the footprint of three parking spaces. Towers may be installed one next to the other, one behind the other and in clusters; increasing even more their incredible potential for space optimization.Even though Tower Parking Systems may reach a total of 35 levels, they can also be designed and built in lower configurations to accommodate different height restrictions. It is important to highlight that parking “levels” are lower than - or not as high... More

RPS-Rotary Parking System
Highly functional and efficient in the use of vertical space.The simplicity of a classic. Safe, reliable and easy to install.Increase parking capacity four (4) to eight (8) times! Rotary Parking Systems are able to accommodate up to sixteen (16) vehicles in the space of two (2); definitely one of the most efficient parking solutions when it comes to maximizing horizontal space and taking advantage of vertical space.Rotary systems may also be installed next to each other and one behind the other, thus expanding on their already amazing capabilities to optimize space. Current configurations include 8 vehicles, 10 vehicles, 12 vehicles and 16 vehicles.Although today Rotary Systems are among the most advanced parking solutions, these systems re... More

BDP- Bidirectional Parking System
The versatility of the Bidirectional or “Puzzle” Parking System lies in its modular nature and its capability to expand in all directions (horizontally, vertically and even underground).Depending on the geometry, height restrictions and other characteristics and conditions of the installation area, BDPs my add parking stalls horizontally, stack levels vertically and even create extra stalls underground when combined with pit parking systems. BDPs may also be installed one in front of the other to maximize space usage when depth is an advantage. Bidirectional Parking Systems may be installed outdoors or may be enclosed to protect vehicles, for aesthetics reasons or to merge with the surrounding architecture or city fabric.BDPs may be fu...

7K4S- Stacker Parking System
From compacts to SUVs the stacker is the most cost-effective way to park or store four vehicles (or three if using our 7K3S model) in the space of one.This ideal configuration works perfect for those commercial operations needing to store medium to high volume of vehicles, such as auto-repair and body shops, car dealers, valet parking and other commercial parking operations.The stackers can be installed side by side or one behind the other to maximize available space for more parking and storage capacity. Although encasing is not required, stackers can be encased for aesthetic reasons or to match the surrounding architecture. More
