SupermarketintheNetherlandsandbeyond

Supermarket is a collective project on the spatial implications of the food industry in the Netherlands and beyond, redesigning this now considered essential architecture to entail a paradigm shift in its journey towards consciousness.sustainability,optimization,andhealthItimagines, Albèrt, a future supermarket that integrates retail experiences with distribution, supply chains, and product display to ensure a frictionless future for conscious consumers; while, at the same time, creating a new civic presence for the city and its residents. The envisioned supply chain for the future super-market commences with the Blue Banana, enhancing the position of the Netherlands - one of the world’s largest food exporters and home to world-class research institutions- in this urbanized trade corridor.

By 2050, when the world’s population is expected to increase by two billion people, “scarce” crops -from the massively consumed Arabica coffee bean to the popular avocado- will be genetically modified in laboratories to endure market pressure and enviromental challenges to provide solutions to the impending food scarcity crisis in a post-pandemic society. The Lab Oratory envisions a highly curated agricultural landscape that converges the unviable industrial and the exclusive organic production of crops into a reconstructed future of farming. This novel “modus operandi” endeavors to reintroduce the building type of the laboratory in regards to the food industry and thus the boundaries of natural and artificial by creating a space of andtogetherexperimentationmultidisciplinarythatbringsgrowers,scientistsvisitors.

Starting in 2014, I formed a group of young architects to undertake mainly recreational projects, with an emphasis on interior design. Forming a team of various heterogenous players, lead to a series of projects that vary between restaurants, bars, apartments and exhibition stands.

Dump Vision

The project, originated by an impulsive search of new and urgent cityscapes, almost deliberately found itself sited on the continent of Africa. Ghana, home of the largest e-waste dump in the world, hosted the vision for a new way of living, a city rising from the ashes of burnt wire and dust. Our proposal suggests a holistic approach to a multi-leveled issue, the concurrence, and complementarity of what are seemingly incompatible uses, relinking industry to living, in an attempt to sculpt a productive space able to re-cater the city both with product and employment.

The integration of the newly built with the existing buildings is achieved through the repetition of the motif of the capsule itselfembodying the Cycladic scale: a box, a Cycladic volume, a hotel room.

The regeneration of the center of Athens is indispensably identified as the regeneration of the Historic Triangle: Piraeus -Stadium-Ermou. The intrinsic power of the triangle is positioned within its boundaries. Athenas Street is this feverish, economic, commercial and cultural vein that channeled into the tangential Ermou Street must form with her, a powerful T, not just of movements –but also of a renewed metropolitan life. The proposal consists in the functional, geometrical, and cultural strengthening of the internal structure of the Historical Triangle, through the creation of three new tension poles. The three reengineered poles intensify the character of the public spaces. Rectangle, Square, Circle: 3 simple new geometries accompanied by crucial traffic, functional and geometric arrangements.
