The Saalecker Werkstaätten is situated in Germany. The site has a difficult past linked to the second world war. The semester consisted out of several exercises which allowed a better understanding of the site. The aim of the exercises is to work with the past and to give a new meaning to the site. During the exercise of the Insertion, I decided to intervene in the corridor which functions as a joint between the main building and the new extensions. The function of the corridor was just a dark passageway to go from point A to B. On the blind side of the wall I inserted brick niches. Each niche has its own function. A shelf, a bench, a table and a double height space. Bay windows let the light into the space and offer a view to the garden. Every niche has a different brick pattern.

The Saalecker Werkstatten is a complex with a negative historical connotation regarding it’s past of nazi second world war. In order to remember and at the same time erase the negative past we as students worked on several interventions in and on the site. The selected intervention is the insertion of an object/furniture piece. It is situated in the corridor connecting the main house with the new extention. The corridor functions as a joint between the two entities. It functions just as a passageway to go from point A to B. By introducing niches in the blind wall without windows facing the garden the corridor becomes a light space where one can stay. Each niche has small functions inside like a study space, reading space, shelf and double height space to look down and to look out into the garden. The niches are made out of brick just like the existing structure. different brick patterns and windows give a different character to each of the niches.

ATELIER DORTE MANDRUP-POULSEN

The program of the exercise: ‘Addition’ was to create a document center, exhibition spaces, education center, foyer/auditorium and restaurant. The addition functions as a joint in between the existing buildings. The buildings consist out of a bridge in which we find the archive/documentation center and connects the existing building to the tower. The tower households the main entrance, the restaurant and offices on the upper floors. The exhibition space is under the ground and the roof of the exhibition space has a square where you can pass through under the bridge towards the garden.

The monumental axisses of the garden are rebuilt by the bridge but the square creates a contrast. The staircase functions as a theatre towards the garden.

INTERCORP BANK - WORKAC NY -

Project for the INTERCORP Bank in Lima Peru. The building is a design from Hans Hollein in 1996-2001. The Intercorp bank is situated in the building and has asked WORKac to renovate office spaces and conference rooms on the ground floor and the 19th and 20th floor of this high rise building. The ground floor concept is based on the principle of creating rooms as furniture, furniture objects in a open space. Every object households it own function, meeting space, waiting areas, green houses, teatre tribune etc. The upper floors household a spatious conference room, meeting areas and elements that accentuate the view towards the city of Lima such as the staircase.

During my internship I worked on the meterialisation and details of the booths. The functions are disposed as furniture elements in space and are custom made.

ENTREE EINDHOVEN - HARTJE EINDHOVEN - LEVS

LEVS has been commissioned by SDK Vastgoed and Amvest to design 264 homes in the heart of Eindhoven, right next to the Philips Stadium. The plan connects the city center with the lively Strijp S, and contains rental and owner-occupied homes and partly a plinth of commercial facilities.

The plan has a very high density of housing. The volume consists of a compartmentalization of three separate building parts. Each building has its own character and is named after three cities with which Eindhoven has a connection; Adelaide, Brussels and Taipei.

Elements that refer to the three cities have been incorporated into the design of the entrances. Adelaide: The entrance has details of solar panel tiles that refer to a group of students from the TU/e Solar team who have developed sustainable cars with solar panels from the solar panel industry in Adelaide. Brussels: the entrance has metal plates on the wall that symbolize the metal elements of the atomium symbol of Brussels and the aircraft industry because of its historical connection with Eindhoven airport and Brussels. Taipei: The entrance has plates inscribed with chip patterns and bamboo elements because Eindhoven has been the hub of Taiwan’s powerful semiconductor industry and chip development for decades.

CASA AC - SAN MANGO PIEMONTE - LAMINA STUDIO

During the spring of 2020 Lamina studio renovated an old apartment of 90 sqm for a young couple. The apartment is situated in San Mango Piemonte near Salerno. Essential lines and rigorous shapes were the goal sought in this minimalist designed home, inhabited by a young couple of restaurant owners.

In the open space, the absolute protagonist is the kitchen, designed ad hoc by the studio and custom made by artisans. A white wardrobe with a large central box, in contrast with the black island block.

The design involved every detail, achieving perfect integration between architecture, interior design and furnishings.

In the master bedroom, the bathroom becomes an integral part of the environment. The sink is placed in the center, while the shower and bathroom fixtures are shielded by reflective glass walls, which guarantee privacy without creating barriers.
