Het Muziektheater in Amsterdam, which is also the site of De Nederlandse Opera and Het Nationale Ballet, brings in guest performers from around the world. The theater’s technical organization operates behind the scenes and is divided in various departments including décor, lighting, stage property, costumes, CAD drawing room, and stage service.

One of the requirements of building huge décors is that they should be easy to dismantle and reconstruct, which makes the design even more complex. Therefore, all the stages and décors are 3D modeled and these models and drawings are used for the building phase as well as for detailed engineering. The amount of drawings for each production can be up to 300. All of this is work is done at Het Muziektheater with MicroStation V8. MicroStation is also used with the planning of available spaces.
