Tender project
The project envisions a harmonious, communitycentric school complex seamlessly integrated into its surroundings, fostering connectivity and providing a distinctive and functional space for diverse educational activities.
The main school volume serves three functions: the daycare centre, KC de Stern, and Park 16 Hoven primary school, each distinguished by colour and facade grid variations. Entrances, designed in a gate shape with semi-circular termination, are distinct for each function, indicating their purpose.
Anticipating peak hour congestion, the design focuses on separating traffic flows efficiently. The structure is divided into two parts, one aligning with the Van der Duijn van Maasdamweg corner and the other positioned at a distance from the plot boundary, facilitating optimal traffic flow. Entrances are strategically located, creating smooth entry and exit paths for users. The gym, accessible in the evenings, is connected by a staircase near the entrance gate.
During breaks, the design promotes a seamless transition for students to outdoor spaces. Greenery is integrated into terraces and outdoor areas, aligning with the desired concept of a school in a green environment.

Thesis project
Plot M1a is the first development within the Morspoort site that aims to make a contribution to the sustainability ambitions of the Municipality of Leiden. The project focuses on climate adaptation, biodiverse greening, energy transition, circular economy, and sustainable mobility.
This project involves the demolition of an existing building and the construction of a new residential block. New development should reuse materials from the removed block and consist of a plinth with a maximum height of 16.25 m and a tower, together no higher than 50 m.
The Programme is mainly focused on social rental (90-95%), targeting at least 150-170 apartments, with each residential unit no less than 45 m2 (GBO). The development must also include around 50 Social Pension units (assisted living), catering to special target group.
The project aims to create a functional and safe living environment for all inhabitants of the development while adhering to set requirements and regulations.

Tender project
A 4585 m2 plot with an existing 890 m2 Montessori school building was allocated for this Tender project. The new school complex was required to accommodate two schools, De Klim-op and De Horizon, along with a Gymnasium and a KinderLab The primary challenge involved seamlessly integrating the two distinctive schools within a singular structure while preserving their individual identities.
Addressing this challenge, our design implemented three facade grid variations, distinguishing each school, complemented by integrated logo billboards for all involved parties. We aimed to create connectivity not only between the two new schools but also with the existing Montessori block. The project adhered to a maximum allowed footprint of 1930 m2 for new construction.
A focal point of the design was the preservation of green space for playgrounds, ensuring a harmonious fusion of functionality and identity within the architectural plan. Consequently, the total programme, spanning 3775 m2, was strategically spread across two floors, optimising spatial utilisation and functional efficiency within the architectural framework.

Elderly Housing Complex set within a natural landscape
North East Inner City of Dublin, Ireland. Thesis project
The brief that forms this project is an Elderly Housing Complex with childcare facilities set within a natural landscape. It derives from the research and interest in the topic of Nature and its health, mental, and environmental benefits.
My intention for this project was to design a simple harmonious complex, create closeness to nature, and establish visual relationships throughout the development.
A derelict former depot site was selected to test my thesis position, which is currently used as a coach parking facility. The site is surrounded by industrial sheds and railways, and most of its area consists of an industrial wasteland.
The project weaves the building into the landscape creating a balance between the built and the natural environments. Nature encloses all building units on the site submerging the occupants into the wild. It is a green oasis for the neighbourhood that provides ecosystem services such as air filtration, biodiversity support, urban cooling, and flood/ rainwater management. It becomes a node within the existing greenway increasing its environmental, social, and economic viability.

My vision for the building was to be simple, clean, serene, and connected with the natural landscape.
A cross-laminated timber construction was chosen to meet the structural demands as well as for its re silience, strength, durability, and high speed of con struction.
The outer façade of the building is cladded with Scottish Larch as it is naturally tough, durable, and resilient to decay material. It gives the building a natural, aesthetically pleasing look that will turn sil ver-grey colour over time soothingly blending into the natural setting blurring the boundary between the two.
All the choices including materials, design elements, layout, plant species and location had a common goal to establish contact with nature, improve the life quality of those living in the complex, and create a peaceful sensation of simplicity.
The smell and texture of the wood internally will sub merge residents into the natural environment from within and will create a sense of spacial warmth, feeling of home, and comfort.
The various views, landscape typologies, the range of outdoor and indoor spaces, as well as the characteristics of wood and greenery contribute to the pleasant, visually appealing experience of the said space.

The project goals were to strategically plan out the 70-hectare site, manage flooding, and optimally site all crops and buildings maximizing solar energy and balancing natural ventilation.
The brief for this project comes from its two clients: The Dublin Food Co-op and UK charity Jamie’s Farm They aim to develop and run the new cooperative farm with an ethical and steadfast communitybased ethos that is common to both groups.
The Dublin Food Co-op is a successful and growing enterprise that operates a progressive economic model where in return for volunteering at the store, discounts are offered on food and produce. All crops are organic, and packaging is minimal. The co-op sources much of its produce in Ireland and it aims to expand and reduce imported food from abroad.
Jamie’s Farm was imagined by J. Feilden, a teacher in the East End of London. Most of his pupils came from disadvantaged backgrounds, many suffered from mental health issues and a lack of confidence. Jamie speculated that spending time on a farm, helping with day-to-day chores, and caring for the farm animals would help his young pupils. His family farm in Bath became the first manifestation of the idea. The Farm ethos is conceptualized as FARM + FAMILY + THERAPY.
FARM synthesizes the theoretical position, analysis, interpretation and architectural ideas around climate change, flooding and connected ecologies.

Camac River, Kilmainham, Co. Dublin, Ireland.
3rd Year project
The brief that forms this project is a Primary Health Care Centre set within a steep typography of a chal lenging site with rich flora and fauna on the banks of the Camac River.
My intention for the project was to design a resilient building with a hierarchy of space that would allow for a smooth progression between public and private. The cantilevered design of the building supports the existing habitat and allows for the expansion of the river’s water.
As nature is well known for its physical and mental health benefits it was crucial for this project to establish a connection between the inside and outside spaces. Circulation zones as well as quiet spaces within each floor form a relationship with the natural landscape utilizing glazing. Exposure to the natural landscape will aid in the recovery of the patients.

4th Year project, semester 2.
The project is located on a previously abandoned, withering site which has since been developed into a thriving wetland reserve with a diverse animal population (Repairing the Riparian).

The native riparian woodland was restored, constructed wetlands were introduced and animals were provided with their natural habitats with the aid of planting across the site. Timber paths and bird hides have been designed and placed around the area to keep humans away yet in touch with nature, creating a closer connection between the two.
