SHAPING INFORMAL CITIES In informal cities, the strong attraction of urban development by large-scale infrastructure can be used to shape the macro form of the future city. The specific location and design of planned largescale infrastructure determines which landscapes are likely to be urbanized, and which landscapes can be preserved as a resource landscape.
GUIDE GROWTH WITH 'ATTRACTING MAGNETS' Facilities, infrastructure, beautiful surroundings, and suitable grounds for building attract urban development. The specific orientation of these - and many other - landscape elements influence urban form on a local scale.
PROTECT LANDSCAPES WITH 'REPELLING MAGNETS' Valuable resource landscapes that are designed to be readable, educational, accessible, and multifunctional tend to repel urban development. Clear borders contribute to the readability of the landscape and the acceptance of nature in the urban landscape.

Landloupe rethinks landscapes and communities. Large-scale trends and gradual changes in the landscape and its people often go unnoticed. Landloupe is a landscape laboratory that unravels those trends in order to provide insight in this change, and to outline a desired future. Landloupe aims to motivate local change and trigger new developments, by creating inspiring designs and catchy visualizations on a community scale.

Landloupe // Entry for Biophilic Design Competition, Interface Reconnect
B
iophilia have given us a lasting bond with certain aspects of nature. For this reason, biophilia should not be seen as a target of design, but as a mean to reconnect people to the whole of nature. Biophilia are a mean to anchor endangered - but often biophobic - patches of ‘wild nature’ in the urban landscape. These patches do not only serve biodiversity. More importantly, they provoke interaction with people in order to rebuilt affinity to endangered natural ecosystems, which are often far from the city. People’s affinity is crucial in an increasing urbanizing world where support for vital, but also biophobic ecosystems is declining. Located in the NDSM wharf in Amsterdam, the project shows the conversion of a former dry dock. Here biophobic wetlands are framed by a biophilic park landscape. ‘Cues to explore’ provide triggers to explore the biophobic wetlands.
