Lighthouse Svenska Björn (SE)
Svenska BjörnN5933 / O2001
Between the islands of the Baltic ocean there is a need for a lighthouse to direct the ships.This orientation point is mainly used to help the ships on their journey and therefore will only be experienced by the passing ships and some local inhabitants of the area like birds and fish. The identity is determined by the light that is specific for each lighthouse. The location demands for sustainable sollutions in both materials and the use of energy.

Mediatheque Brussels (B) This project deals with both urban and programmatical issues. The choise of the location is derrived from the qualities and opportunities of that exact spot. For instance, it provides a connection between the uppercity and downtown, creates a direct access from the parking and creates the possibility for the building to undertake the dialogue with its surrounding.The advantage of the programma is the ability to mix the functions. Therefor the visitors not only visit

the function they want to in advance, but they also get a glimps of the other functions. The routing is also used to emphasize this en give the visitors a tour of the abilities and functions. Light qualities play a big role in this project. Some areas need a lot of direct sunlight, while some spaces need ambient light or are better of with artificial lighting. This alowed us to use different layers of transparency and to come up with a smart sollution. In order to give the building a massive look insteadas on of a collec-

tion of functions it is totally covered with corrogated and perforated steel panels, which can open up in case of a facade-opening. This system also works as a natural sun shader and proides spaces wich can be used as a balcony, overlooking the terrace or the huge square. On top of the building, at the end of the impressive stairs, a panoramic terrace can be found. This is a quallity derived from the location, put in the building and lifted to a new dimension.
The challange of this project was to create a context-less concept, which afterwards was tested on a single location. This concept consists of multiple gardens which can be used by multiple users spread over time. These gardens are all different in terms of scale, light quality, vieuw and purpose. The build-ing envelope had te be 40x40x40 meters. To get a good balance between concept, different quality gardens, and project demands, huge envelope, we referred to a fractile. A fractile can be described Colaboration with Wouter Moorlag and Rosa Pieczulski

best as a repitition of shapes in different scales, successing each other. The smallest scale used is a 4,5 meter cube to keep dwelling qualities possible. To achieve a varriation of inhabitatants three types of units are developed. These three are a unit for a single inhabitant, a unit for a couple and a family unit. They consist out of 3, 5 or 7 cubes connecting 2 or 3 floors, and sharing 3 till 7 gardens with different qualities.
The cirulation uses the same concept as the fractile. There is one big entrance entering the central void, which leds to a hallway connected to 3 levels which leds to the units themselves. The facade is kept fairly simple. The outside of the cube is made of white concrete, which creates a big contrast with the different gardens and creates hirarchy between the dwellings and the different gardens.
Urban sportsground Älvsjö (SE)In this junction between two neighbourhoods, an industrial area and the big exhibition zone a proposi-tion is made for an urban sportsground. Due to its infrastructural borders with a regional radiation, the sportsground attracts a lot of people with interest in different sports. The location transforms into an entrance to the neighbourhoud. Instead of the gap it is now, it becomes a place with a body and com-pletes the strip of bigger scale structures that runs along the highway.

The sportsground is making the connection with its surrounding without losing it’s own identity. To the outside it looks closed, like the industrial buildings that surround the location. Openings in the struc-ture are inviting to the multifunctional square where a new world is created and sporting, recreation and people meet. The connection between the square and the buildings is emphasized by seats and other functional spaces in different scales.

The complete area contains four tennis courts, one multifunctional square with a basketballcourt and an icerink, joggingtrack and two footballfields, one with a running track. Indoor you can find a sporthall, shops, and a fitness/gym area that is connected by a restaurant to an icestadion with icerink and cafe.
Daycare center Lidingö (SE)Surrounded by the nature of northern Stockholm this daycare centre lies secured in the woods. The planes of the sedum covered roofs make a gesture towards this surrounding and thats what connects the program with the building. The idea of the daycare centre is focussed on playing and learning outside. Unfourtunaitely, that is not always possible so the children can cover under the roof or find a comfortable place inside.

From the moment you arrive by the site a pattern of light and a border of rocks guide you to an em-bracing but formal entrance, which leads you to the entrance hall anex playing area. This overlit foy-erspace leads you to the middle of the building where you enter the main space. The roof opens up towards the main playing areas, both inside, covered and outside.
In terms of materiality the building is a contrastmaker between the regular playing area and the undis-covered nature on the east. Where on the north and east bricks are dominating the vieuw of the build-ing, on the south and west the main focus is on wood and glass to create a friendly and easy to access daycare center.

Witte de With Rotterdam (NL)The Witte de Withstraat in pre-war Rotterdam is a lively street with a lot of shops, gallery’s and other crowd-pullers. There is a big variation in visitors and the use of the street can be considered dynamic. Especially during the evening there is a lot to do and the crowd gets alive. The Witte de With centre of contemporary art would like to atract a lot of these potential visitors and in order to do this they opted for a new building with multiple functions.By creating an big collective area this scheme provides interaction between these functions in order

to make the users aware of the existence of the other functions. Not only will this provide interaction between user and function, but also between the different users.The position of the building will maintain the blocks original courtyard typology and the continuation of the street. However, a clear entrance will apear and introduce the visitor to the building where they will find an inviting mixture of culture, progressive art and a meeting place for the people of Rotterdam.

The goal in this study was to focus on smaller buildingparts and to obtain knowledge and a position in computer generated building parts, aswell as the assembly and construction of the parts. Ornament as we know from the greeks costs a lot of labour, which is quite expensive. Therefore we can make use of modern techniques like cnc-milling, lasercutting and 3D-printing to create buildingparts or molds to produce parts. This is the result of an exercise in using moder techniques.
The general question in Deurne is the lack of public space for interaction. The streets are dominated by cars, which demodtivates people to walk around. This is one of the instigators that creates a deterio-rated shopping street. A small urban intervention creates a new square on one of Deurnes primary axis, the Turnhoutsebaan. This square becomes the urban generator and stimulator for new interventions and atmosphere along the Turnhoutsebaan. The aim is to regenerate the existing, and to capture the possibilities for new qualities that improve the situation.

Comunity Center Deurne (B)Due to a merger of the eight villages and cities around and including Antwerp in the early 80’s into a unified Antwerp, the existing governmental facilities became the new districts district houses. This merger changed the way the district council and staff is organised dramatically. A new approach for the way a district house is organised should be envisioned within Deurnes fragmented context.

The site is located on a junction between hugh appartment towers, the historical center of Deurne and the old church and vicar. A small urban intervention creates a new square on one of Deurnes primary axis, the Turnhoutsebaan. This road is connecting Deurne physically and visually with Antwerp, creating a symbolic gesture to-wards the district house and its city.
