umzo
Studio Basta is a small landscape architecture office who make designs on almost all scale levels, from landscape scale assignments �ll garden designs. As I worked there for 2,5 years I worked on all those scale levels. The small size of the office allowed me to get involved in several phases from the design process. From the first conversa�on with the client �ll monitoring construc�on works. Quickly I got my own projects to lead inside the office, but as a team we always discussed during the design process, especially the conceptual phase. Next to that, Studio Basta gave me the trust and space to develop my designing and visual skills. Something I enjoyed and appreciated.

Project: Lutgardis Natural playground in urban Brussel The �me of concrete playgrounds are over. The idea to great a more diverse and greener playground is a wish of both schools and the parents. In Germany, Netherlands and Belgium you see the transi�on star�ng. A blooming, fresh, green landscape is a welcome change in the concrete environment of Brussels. Using vegeta�on as a frame work and as play field, spaces are created where every child can find their own place. The playground is an adventure to walk through, run through in mul�ple ways! The biggest compliment we got from of a school teacher:” There is a lot less bullying on the playground just because the kids aren’t bored enough to bully each other”. Within this project I worked on the analysis, concept development, design dra� �ll monitoring the construc�on work.

Project: St.Amandsplein, Kortrijk Central square in folk neighbourhood With the help of an intensive par�cipa�on process, a design came forward that got posi�ve reac�ons from almost everybody off the diverse inhabitants. The central character of the square asked for a mul�func�onal design; space for a farmers market, par�es, watching a soccer match on a big screen, playground and just space to hang out. By separa�ng the square, in a subtle way, from the hard and busy edges an introvert, calm space is created. Maintaining the open character was a must for the overview and walkability of the square.

The plane tree remains the ruler of the square. By adding contra green spaces on the edges a spacious, green urban square is created.
We designed subtle spaces in bigger spaces, in this way openness is maintained while making several smaller places.

Project: Hoeve in de hagen Framhouse fi�ed in the cultural landscape with modern hedge structures The cultural landscape in which the farmhouse is located asks for an appropriate answer of the garden. By playing with the characteris�c hedge structures physical rela�ons as well as vision rela�ons are created with the landscape. These hedge structures also creates introvert spaces close to the house, and more extrovert spaces further into the garden. So, several types of spaces are created each with their own quality, fi�ng in the landscape and answering the program of the client. I led this project up to the final design stage. This contains: first conversa�ons with the client, landscape analyses, concept crea�ng, design and visual representa�on.

Project: Fenikssite Brussel Appartement buildings with public func�ons located at the edge of Mediapark Brussels The project is located on the edge of the tree-filled media park in Brussels. We started working with the strong height difference, the forest like se�ng and the public character of the place. The design process was interes�ng, star�ng from a introvert se�ng of the buildings, the design changed into a more extrovert se�ng to connect with the strong public character in the future (Media site Brussels has big plans planned 5-10 years later). With this design, changes are created for public func�ons and an interes�ng, vegeta�ve living environment is created. In this project I worked on the analysis, conceptual phase, design phase, visualiza�ons and discussed at team mee�ngs

Master Thesis:
Dry Waterscapes Landscape Based Green Infrastructure in Tucson, Arizona The urban drainage system in Tucson today is a neglected spa�al en�ty of the urban fabric. In this thesis a research is done on the poten�al of green infrastructure conform the landscape based design approach. The main ques�on is: “In what way can the urban landscape offer sustainable solutions for the drainage system and engage human and nature in the desert city Tucson?” This thesis proposes a mul�-scale strategy that builds on the bio-physical features of the landscape. Green Infrastructure prac�ces along the urban drainage system are s�mulated, with the help of incen�ves, to establish a green and coherent spa�al en�ty over �me. By combining governmental s�mula�on with local ini�a�ves the urban drainage system can be transformed into a locally embedded landscape which provides, in this design thesis, slow-traffic networks, aesthe�c pleasing public space, a comfortable micro climate and an increase in

na�ve vegeta�on with increasing benefits over �me. A watershed provides an example of how an urban drainage system can be transformed with carefully selected incen�ves on a meso-scale level. A local design is made for one of the possible incen�ves, to provide an illustra�on of the poten�al urban water landscape. Within the design accessibility, visibility, mul�-func�onality, aesthe�cs and nature development form important aspects to engage people with their dry waterscape.

The landscape strategy illustrates the poten�al of an integrated large scale urban wash system that combines rainwater run-off deten�on, nature corridors, public space and slow traffic networks. For one watershed key loca�ons are selected that kick start change. These key loca�ons can decrease flood problems significantly by detaining water and are located at the interac�ons of urban social flows to accommodate human and nature interac�on. With the help of design these places can create inspira�onal, cool and aesthe�cal oasis in the desert city. 16

The masterplan consist of a rainwater run-off deten�on basin, a water harvest cistern to irrigate the adjacent spor�ng fields and integrates public space with na�ve natural landscape. Within the plan flowing lines are introduced to put emphasis on the natural character and break with the surrounding grid system.

Palo Verde and Mesquite trees provide shade along the route and a�ract wildlife. Furthermore, amongst others, Ironwood, Saguaro, Oc�llio and Lechuguilla are planted that have characteris�c forms and flowers and increase the biodiversity.

Bachelor Thesis:
Living Roofs A new public park layer on ‘de Amstel’, Amsterdam As in many ci�es, highly urban areas lack public parks and green spaces that can enable interac�on between people and nature. This thesis is an exploratory research to the poten�al of green roofs as a new nature and public park layer within the city of Amsterdam. Green roofs can provide valuable habitat for, amongst others, birds, bu�erflies and bees. Based on the building construc�on various roofs can be made accessible for public or semi-public use, providing a magnificent view over the city. The proposed strategy include a new public route on top of proposed new buildings. Nonaccessible roofs are planted with a variety of plants and herbs to provide dispersion routes to various natural area’s within the city for bees, birds and bu�erflies.

The designed roof is part of a bigger concept which connect social and natural flows.
On the designed roof a variety of vegeta�on zones are planted, crea�ng different atmospheres.. The pedestrian path connects the roofs and building entrances. Mul�ple viewing points are designed as well as relaxing spaces to comfortable enjoy the sun.
