This has been achieved thus far with huge financial investments approximately every thirty years in order to raise the barriers that …

The transition from a fresh water to a saline water system brings many opportunities. By following the concept of the landscape machine, the monoculture can transform into a rich and diverse landscape with ecological and economical values that strengthen each other. A sustainable area with much higher …

Ooghe 52 degrees is a respond to the Dutch coastal development. The projects finds a way to cooperate and design in a collective space: the Dutch horizon in this case. The new intervention is sea based and the North Sea forms the foundation. It reintroduces the Ooghe, an underwater mudflat. Here, a refinery …

Design for a spa at the intersection of landscapes. With the sea level rise due to climate change, the traditional way of keeping the island save, by building dikes, will eventually become unaffordable. With farsightedness, twenty-five years ago an experiment with dynamic costal management was started …

Twirre V2 is the evolution of an architecture for mini-UAV platforms which allows automated operation in both GPS-enabled and GPSdeprived applications. This second version separates mission logic, sensor data processing and high-level control, which results in reusable software components for multiple …

To contribute positively to systemic transitions within local communities, architects need to be critical, reflective, far-sighted communicators.
