The organization of this 110,000 square foot office space is based on creating visual axes which connect the employees to views over the bay. The curtain wall of the existing building enables light to enter the interior area of the floor plan while the programme layout takes the line of the columns as a reference.

The general state of this stone building in downtown Bordeaux resulted in only the timber frame and the facades being preserved. Four social housing units have been built within the walls. The central core was cleared, creating an Italian-feel courtyard bringing daylight and fresh air into the adjoining rooms.

The headquarters of Unilever –a huge company selling basic products which have come to feature largely in our lives– is located in a picturesque town on the Rhine with under 50,000 inhabitants. For the interior of the new building the architects came up with the concept of the Agile Workplace that is ‘a flexible space facilitating teamwork, staff commitment, health and well-being’.

Originally this was one single seventy-six square metre apartment which has been activated by implementing two actions: firstly, by connecting the basic elements (cooker, ironing board, bed, steps) with the living space using roll-down devices and secondly, by raising the common area (bathrooms, utility area, wardrobes) 60 centimetres.

This is the site of a clothes store which was the scene of a fire. The owner purchased the fire-damaged building and planned four apartments for himself and his family. The initial aim was for them to look like two- or three-storey houses rather than apartments.

A design for a new neighbourhood with 650 dwellings. The main intention of the design is to create a new housing neighbourhood that is strongly connected to its surroundings. Thus, unlike most parts of the huge Ypenburg development of 12,000 new dwellings, it does not become an isolated fragment of housing. The building blocks integrate with the neighbouring areas to the east by continuing its orthogonal pattern of roads and blocks. As the new housing blocks move toward the park area on.

The option for this Google sales office –occupying 16,000 m2 over several storeys of the Central Saint Giles Building, a complex of office and residential units designed by Renzo Piano in 2010– was to recreate the interior of a London townhouse, in its most stereotypical version.
