Café Tinnitus - a café with a jumping castle as a roof. Sitting in the café you see the kids jumping through the transparent roof slightly blurred. The light in the café is colored through the differently colored air chambers of the jumping castle. But you better get used to the noise...the project was created in context of a research project for technical university of vienna dealing with the reception of noise.
windmills - a research i did at NL Architects for Atelier Rijksbouwmeester about windturbines and the relation to the dutch landscape. the series is trying to initate a paradigm shift in the reception of wind turbines by changing the industrial product accused of littering the horizon(horizont vervuiling) to an integral part of dutch landscape and identity.(the studies had also some serious parts...)

Touwenterrein - a housing project in Amsterdam I was working on at NL Architects
Wohnwandkirche - In the new testament there are no commandments for the construction of a church building such as for the temple of the old testament in Jerusalem. The focus of the texts is much more on how to live together in a church community which replaces the physical temple.
This becomes concept.
The Church building is a volume formed by functional "walls" based on a text of the bible (Isaiah 58:7). The function is to offer people in need an accommodation.The gathering room for the church community within this enclosure of housing cells plays with the image of a prototypical outline of a church building with tower and gathering hall.

fryggebod - a project for a mobile home taking advantage of the swedish right of public access (allemansrätten). It´s a law that allows you to stay at any place out of the sight of houses for a day or two, then you should move on again. This mobile home was intended for fast build up and lets the users of traditional spare time- or colony houses enjoy this unique law.

Tank Waggon Pool - A tank truck converted to a mobile pool that is open to the public. Swim a short lap in the mobile pool, chill or sunbathe on the wooden sun deck, enjoy a drink in the deckchairs under sunshades. Everything slightly elevated over the crowd. For a short while your neighbourhood is influenced by pool-life before it moves on to bring change to another street.
groninger forum - again a competition on which I worked at NL Architects. it was the winning project against Zaha Hadid, UN Studio, FOA, and more.it should be completed around 2011
tumble weed - an amoeba-like robot made from plastic foil, used car vans, batteries and a microchip. It moves by inflating and deflating the outer chambers and is in this way able to move in any direction. tumble weed is the third part of the responsive environment series and sets the focus on combining social and technical interaction.
//video// part four of the responsive environment series. an utopian animation. a load of construction robots is brought to a urban place to change the surrounding and interaction of the inhabitants. The robots act in a network and act as sensors and bricks of the everchanging construct.
They react on shortcomings of the site, such as lightshortage by forming out light-buds. if they sense possible points of interaction they initiate change and create f.ex a kids-pool out of a hydrant. In other cases they create bridge-balconies for neighbours for a day or a brass music hall. The mass of robot changes it form constantly and creates points of interaction or creates obstacles that bring people together by nagging.
In that way people are stimulated engage with their city and to get into interaction with their surroundings. when the reformers move on they leave the neighborhood changed
