Celebrating the Landscape, Terschelling TU Delft MSc2 Studio, Delta Shelter 1st year Master project, July 2020


1:200 site models, built using styrofoam, modelling clay, fibers, carboard and wax

6


The area of the Boschplaat on Terschelling is a scattered landscape where each place has its own natural qualities. This proposal connects to the war-time story of the scattered World War II bunkers and celebrates the different qualities of the landscape by scattering the program over three smaller shelters. The shelters are different in function and size, but are all of the same architectural family. Each shelter can be seen as a pebble or sea-shell, washed ashore by the ever changing landscape. These pebbles are placed on a framework and have a thin roof on top. The interior concept shows a juxtaposition of different masses that create the positive and negative space on which light will fall. The shelters are constructed from solid wooden beams stacked on top of one another, conform the strickbau method. These massive walls are always present in the experience of the shelters and are enhanced by built-in shelves and storage systems. The timber beams radiate their warmth, colour and smell to the space and create a mystique atmosphere where the user becomes aware of the architectural quality and beauty of the wooden construction as well as the presence of the landscape.

Minimal Art Museum, Haarlem TU Delft MSc1 Studio, Museum 1st year Master project, January 2020


16


The Minimal art Museum <MaM> focusses itself on artworks from the Minimal Art Movement that manifested itself during the 1960’s in the United States and later Europe. The main protagonist in this story is American artist, furniture designer and architect Donald Judd with additional works by Roni Horn, Robert Morris and Olafur Eliasson. Judd’s chair 84 <1991> is the basis for the design approach. “The art of a chair is not its resemblance to art, but is partly its reasonableness, usefulness, and scale as a chair. [...] The chair has a basic function, and the design does not contradict that function or add any unnecessary embellishments.” The idea

of clarity in an object -be it a chair or a building- struck me at first glance and formed a framework to design a museum next to the city-centre of Haarlem, the Netherlands. The museum focusses itself on the beautiful waterfront and tries to capture the reflecting light to then enhance it onto the art pieces. By different spatial, technical and tectonic design choices the Minimal art Museum places itself heroically in the landscape to act as a canvas for the art inside.

Hofje Bakenesserkamer, Haarlem TU Delft Elective, Analytical Models 1st year Master project, April 2020


Above: Graphical abstraction of the elementings within the ´hofje´ Right: Analytical models, built by using gypsum, paper, pigments and cardboard

24


In collaboration with Pjotr van Noesel & Bas Leemans

The Bakenesserkamer is the oldest “hofje” within the Netherlands (1935). The traces of time and craftsmanship used during its original building phase make this place into a picturesque, spatial ensemble within the city of Haarlem. Together, the analytical models have been synthesised into a composition of characteristics, which shows how one experiences the hofje, from the two different entrances, towards its inner courtyard, and the various textures, and details that come along this journey.

Case Study House nr. 16, Los Angeles TU Delft BSc 5, House of the Future 3rd year Bachelor project, January 2018


28


“Each house must be capable of duplication and in no sense be an individual performance.” This is the main statement from the Case Study House Program. Case Study House 16 is conceived as a prototype for the average middle-class family. It’s the only house from Craig Ellwood’s Case Study Houses that actually retains the concepts of middle-class houses.

In the ‘house of the future’ course we had to analyse and model a well known building. During this project I took role as group leader where I would arrange meetings and had the overall lookout on the project. I also prepared all the lasercut and 3D-print models. During this course I learned a lot on modelmaking as well as making a large and detailed model in a team. Looking back on this period, it was one of the most fun courses I attended in which I learned the most. The site for the building of Case Study House 16 differed from the typical suburban lot that Ellwood knew how to resolve. The site is a levelled plateau on a hill with views in perpendicular directions. Modularity and internal clarity were more important to Ellwood than site strategy. It’s more about the internal organization of the building than about the connection between the site and the building. Case Study House 16 exemplifies the postwar idea of openness. This has direct consequences for how all the rooms are orientated to one another. The different areas in the house open to each other and when we look at the night rooms, something peculiar happens. The bedrooms are connected to the hallway without a door. The kitchen and tv-room can be concealed from the living room with harmonicawalls. The house also opens to the outside. Some bedroom walls are extended to the courtyard, to create the idea of continuous space and make the bedroom look bigger. The overhanging roof contributes to this principle. In the house there is a clear distinction between day and night use. The main hall splits the house in day and night functions. Private and public are separated by semi-transparent glass and a closed wall. All the other walls are ‘floating’ between the ceiling and floor. One of the primary concerns of Ellwood was to re-invent the kitchen and bathroom. The open kitchen shows the new post-war living standards, just like the position of the kitchen, that shows the central role the kitchen was taking in the house.

Other work & Interests 2015 - 2020


During the ‘House of the Future’ course I got interested in making wooden joints and making them on a 1:1 scale. Therefore, I remade the sidetable by Gerrit Rietveld. This gave me a wider understanding on the use of plywood, different joints and how one finishes the final wood piece. It is always amazing to see how, on first sight, a piece of furniture looks quite simple, but when you try to recreate it, it turns out to be a difficult exercise.

I’m always interested in finding new techniques for modelling as well as making mock-ups. During the design course for the museum in Haarlem I joined a two day workshop in Terrazzo making hosted by Tomaello. Already familiar with their work from my internship at ‘Shift-au’ I got to learn more about the process and the almost infinite possibilities. I got to make a sample tile myself. The base colour is a lightly blue concrete with neutral gray marbles. In addition I added multiple sizes and tones of yellow and dark blue stone.
