The transformation of this holiday home, designed by xlxs architects, is done with respect to the existing architecture. Characteristic elements such as the authentic chimney and charming overhangs will be retained, but the house will get a fresh, luxurious look with a roof edge of zinc seams and sustainable Accoya facade cladding. Thanks to solar

Commissioned and in close collaboration with Nown, we designed a remarkable collection of 3D knitted ceiling designs. This groundbreaking product brings 3D-knit into the world of architecture and also provides a great solution for acoustic ceilings. With careful attention to detail, we have crafted intricate patterns that add a touch of artistry and sophistication to
As urban populations grow, the need for affordable housing becomes increasingly urgent. To address this issue, cities explore the concept of 3D neighbourhoods, which feature mixed-use building plans. 8×8 is a three-dimensional neighbourhood that features four towers, each with a transparent undulating façade that exposes the solid timber construction, contributing to the understanding of wooden buildings.

To keep the environmental impact low,
With a rising housing shortage, a floating house offers a sustainable alternative to traditional housing. The house is constructed in CLT (cross laminated timber) and cladded with a cork façade. I mainly used biobased materials, so the environmental impact of the project is minimized, while enabling a healthy interior climate. In this project I was

With Studio RAP we designed an innovative bridge for a competition in a small municipality in the Netherlands. The bridge consists almost completely out of wood and due to its optimised freeform space frame structure it blends nicely with its surroundings. The space frame structure is an efficient way to use a minimum amount of
