HELLO THERE
This portfolio is deliberately short & sweet, if you’re interested and wish for long and detailed please visit my website nadiaremmerswaal.com, or better yet, contact me personally. In the making of this portfolio I discovered, perhaps logically, that my career is mirrored in my personality. Both show a wide range of interests, the application of these interests in varied fields, an affinity with creativity and a drive to leave a positive mark on the world. I’ve been privileged: being able to apply my skills to a wide range of projects, from better housing solutions for slums, to developing net-zero-energy concepts for existing building stock in Holland. I hope you enjoy this portfolio.

CAST FORMWORK SYSTEM
GRADUATION & RESEARCH PROJECT
CAST FORMWORK SYSTEM During my graduation project in the studio Architectural engineering I had the unique opportunity to visit the Kampung of Indonesia. The kampung are self-build areas with often bad quality building construction. In my graduation project I researched if new technology (like CNC milling or 3-d printing) can make a difference in these under-served communities in order to improve the existing build environment in a cultural sustainable way. THE RESEARCH, that focussed on technical solutions to serve the urban poor of the Indonesian kampung, is aimed at providing both self-build solutions as self-sustaining manufacturing processes. This resulted in the design of a CNC milled formwork system that enables inhabitants to self-construct a safe concrete frame that can be build up to 4 stories in hight. After graduation the project was awarded several grants and awards, which granted time and funding to allow me to continue research for one year after graduation. This feasability research was aimed for both technical as economical aspects.

THE GRADUATION RESEARCH The research was twofold; first the kampung of Indonesia were researched; the site, building methods, materials and the make-up of the Indonesian house were discussed. Second, digital-manufacturing processes were researched using both general literature and reference projects. These reference projects were tested on eight sets of criteria to research their potential when applied in the Indonesian urban kampung. In order of priority they are; Durability, Multi Storey Height, Cost material, Cost Machinery, Local Assembly, Difficulty Assembly, Personalization and Local Materials. From the technical research two most promising project-references were chosen and combined with local building methods in a hybrid to construct both re-usable CNC milled moulds for multi-storey construction, as for constructing bricks.
THE BUILDING SYSTEM
RESEARCH YEAR A half year after graduation the project was granted three big awards with which allowed me to research both technical and economical feasability of the system. The goal was to develop and test a prototype for an Indonesian sized house. Together with a team graduation students from both the TU Delft and Hogeschool Rotterdam the detailling was developed in the RDM Makerspace in Rotterdam. The first CNC milled formwork system in the world was build, poored and tested at the Green Village in Delft. In 2016 I’ve made multiple trips to Indonesia, not only to test the technical research in local context, but also to do market research for the economical feasability of the project. In the end the local ‘mandor’ (contractors) were very exited about the use of this technology in the Kampung. The economical feasability and accessibility of local markets were deemed too high obstacles to succescfully penetrate the market. Therefore all research is being transferred to a local university in Bandung, who will continue the research locally.

A large part of the primary energy consumption in Holland is comprised by the build environment. Portico flats make up a big part of the Dutch building stock. These flats are often build just after WWII and generally have a bad energetic building performance. The Dutch goverment has a net-zero-energy ambition for all buildings owned by social housing corporations before 2050. Not many of these portico flats have been successfully renovated to net-zero-energy level. Schouten Bouw, a developing contractor from district Haaglanden has the ambition to develop a well thought portico renovation concept. They asked me to design this concept, from installations to inhabitant communication.

STARGAZING TOWER Stargazing can be approached from many perspectives, one can look in a very theoretical way to the sky to study the constellations and its positions. There is more to stargazing however than just this perspective, the sky offers wonders and has the power to trigger the imagination. The children of the community of Rindal showed us how much wonders the sky can hold to an individual. Their imagination was easily triggered by just giving simple facts about the sky. This inspired me to base my design on our solar system and use the planets relative size to create platforms on which stargazing can be experienced in different ways. The first four planets can be used to step into the structure. The large size of both Jupiter and Saturn make them perfect for common stargazing areas, while our last two planets Uranus and Neptune are designed so the stargazing can be experienced in a different, more secluded way. The stargazing tower is therefore designed in a way that it links the above with below.

REVIVING THE ARMAMENTARIUM
HERITAGE & ARCHITECTURE (RMIT) - MSC 1
THE ARMAMENTARIUM REDESIGN This redesign for the Armamentarium in Delft focuses on a flexible solution where respect for the monumentality of the building is combined with the modern needs of the new users. The Armamentarium is a former weapon depositry for the Kingdom of Holland, as such it was build in a massive scale. Great wooden beams and thick brick walls make up the construction. In my design proposal I suggested the building to be given back to the inhabitants of Delft. For a long time no ‘Delftenaar’ had set foot in the building, it was the area of tourists. One of the design starting points were that the building should make enough revenue through its functions to keep the monumental building in the great shape it is today. A very light and flexible interior system was used to house all new functions. If needed they can be altered and/or removed easily. Shops and restaurants on the ground floor give space to all inhabitants of Delft. The health centre on the second floor brings in new visitors everyday and small technological startups are situated at the top of this beehive of activity.

DE LICHTZUIL
ARCHITECTURAL ENGINEERING - BCS 6
THE LIGHT COLUMN De Lichtzuil translates to ‘The Light Column’. As as indicated by the name, this project focussed on designing with day-light. A monumental former cotton transhipment (the Katoenveem) building situated in the harbours of Rotterdam was the marked location. The great monumental facade was not to be touched. To really focus on designing with daylight I chose to design a an exposition area for a local artist. Daylight was a very important aspect, and during the design process multiple lighting studies were performed to find out how to best bring day-light into the building in a controlled environment. The design combines to big light columns that bring light to the ground floor with heliostats to lighten specific places that needed extra lighting. Around these two big glass columns a white square-shaped pavilion houses the sculptures of the artist. A lighting route is designed that leads the visitors from the entrance into the monumental building to the pavilion that is centered in the huge space of the Katoenveem.

In 2017 I was asked by the family Vos to help inspire them with idea’s for their home office space. After a home visit, a pinterest spread exchange to get a feel for the interests and idea’s of the family I designed two options for the family. The first option was the renovation of a single room of their Utrechtse house. This room was then the designated work space of the mom. In the second option a wall was torn down and in this bigger room both parents could use this room as an office space. Secondary usage of the room included a smart TV for watching photo’s with the whole family, a possible beamer, a place for the LP collection of the dad and a sitting corner for the mom to invite guests. Also the mom requested a desk where she could use both a normal desk-chair ánd a ‘bike-desk-chair’ The end result included a color panel, a moodboard and two sketches for inspirational purposes.
