Passion
Hands-on designing, with a strong interest in expressing the proces via different media. Working from analog + analog mixed with digital to analyse and design is what I enjoy doing most.

Piano pavilion Brussels 1030
A space open for the public, to enjoy piano music coming from within the pavilion.
It is situated on the edge of one of the many water bodies in the park.
The pivoting wooden doors allow visitors to create their own spaces, more open or closed.

Positioneren
Frank Loyd Wright
An exercise where I had to focus on drawing an architectural building using graphite and charcoal. I chose to draw Falling Water from Frank Loyd Wright.
Dimensions: 1500x2200mm

Urban Villa Brussels 1030 Papenvest
4 apartment blocks connected by a circulation of staircases and 1 elevator. None of the walls in the apartment touch the outer walls, what makes for a free circulation in the apartments.

Bacherlorproef Brussels 1000
Ninoofsepoort
The intersection of ‘Little Zenne Park’ or the Heyvaertstraat and the Ninoofsepoort Park is where my 3 interventions are situated. A house, a building with ateliers for art and architecture students and an exposition building.

Reflecting on space Valle d’Aosta Italy Nus
During this studio, “Measuring the mountains”, we stayed a week in a cabin situated at 2500m altitude in the Italian Alps.
We each had to find a type of measuring tool.
During my hikes up the mountains I took with me 4 300x300mm mirrors.
I was intrigued by the different views and reflections I could capture via this medium.

For my final jury I wanted to achieve the feeling of being back in that exact place in the mountains, seeing the exact reflections I saw then.
I made 2 charcoal drawings and welded a structure to attach my mirror.
It was an unique experience for the visitors of the exhibition.
Dimensions drawings: 1500x2200mm

Masterplan Politecnico di Milano Italy
This project was all about re-activating the Martesana river. Via a system of bio lakes and gardens, fauna and flora can re-flourish in this densely populated industrial area.
The central pavilion offers a place for a rest but also takes you on a walk in between the bio lakes.
An existing indurstrial building has turned into a kayak and canoe starting/exiting point

No Bounds Brussel 1000
An urban garden as an entry and exit way of the Egmont Park in Brussels.
As the years pass, the space between two buildings will be taken over by nature.
By creating pole structures, nature is encouraged to attach itself and grow verticaly aswell.
One of the adjacent buildings is taken into the project by opening it up, allowing soil and flora to enter.
Parc d’Egmont 9
My final installation was made out of 11 paper sections.
The sections went through the garden and the building, showing how nature interact with them.
Dimensions: 840x1180mm

Master Dissertation (work in progress) Brussel 1050
Currently working on my master dissertation, the site I chose is the cemetery of Ixelles (14 Ha), which is situated in the densely student populated heart of Ixelles.
How are cemeteries being seen now?
Should they be developed differently?
Should they change with their surroundings?
Should nature become more part of them?
How can we design with cemeteries, to achieve the most efficient usage of the existing space?
