Samenvatting

This design offers an alternative of camping into nature reserves. 'Into the Dutch wild' promotes immersive access to the Dutch landscape by facilitating architectural campsite interventions within the natural, yet human made, landscape of Flevoland. Around the world, nature reserves are either being forcefully protected or strangled to death by tourism. How can we, as tourists, residents, architects, or campers, experience the Dutch rural landscape without harming the local environment? This project anticipates an alternative design approach of the contemporary campsite by creating architectural interventions without a significant ecological footprint, thus incorporating and strengthening the native ecologies of the site.
