They are housing “dots”, compact structures with interior access and projecting balcony zones. The placement of the buildings is a composition based on the view of Lake Constance. Glass sliding elements are located in front of the apartments, some are transparent, and some are not. This allows for privacy regulation.

The towers make the most of the space on the ground plan and reach the mandatory height. The excess of floor area ratio is adjusted by means of excavations. These excavations become larger as the towers become higher and are produced in areas that face the north or in the closest areas between the towers.

The authors pay homage to l'Unité d'Habitation inside two transparent boxes whose form is based on visual axes. They design corridors that access different types of homes which are developed at different levels. The effort to individualise each apartment is remarkable.

This project is unusual due to the low-cost resources used to adapt a construction formerly used as office and workshop space. Intervention was undertaken on only half of the original fibre cement roofs which were later divided into two independent properties with a partition unseen from the outside.

1. Courtyard with corridors 2. Entrance to the courtyard 3. Communal deck 4. Grades towards the water

The two buildings are designed to place these disparate parts in relation to each other. Their size and position allow them to mediate between the existing old and new buildings. Together, they form a composition of parts that maintains a somewhat unstable equilibrium.

The need to provide good acoustics in open rooms coupled with a desire to offer a single image to the office led the architects to use felt as the main material. The option of covering ceilings and partitions with this material was also extended to include the furniture and the lighting such that the interior has become a space with new-found character, given a special sensory perception by the texture of the felt and its sound-absorbing properties.

1. Access to the lifts and staircase 2. Access to the underground car park 3. Open corridors 4. Row house blocks

The Whale is one of the three meteorites that mark the area. Within the same footprint as a 'Berlage block' (50 x 100 m) in Amsterdam-Zuid, a programme twice as large had to be realised, with an optimum amount of sunlight and a maximum vista for all the houses. The line of the roof corresponds to the position of the sun.

This project has converted a Bordeaux city centre office building, built in 1870, into an art gallery and two first floor dwellings sharing street access. The original building had its facade on Cours du Médoc, with two bays with stone walls behind this, a double transition bay and a workshop with four double bays with wooden trusses and tie rods. The total floor plan area is 450 square metres.

1. Access to the underground car park 2. High-rise patios 3. Courtyard 4. Slopped plinth

This project is an alternative solution to the city block. It is proposed as more of a building system than as an individual building. The lattice-like set intersperses 30 built volumes and 30 empty spaces. These empty spaces are high-rise patios for neighbourhood life, open to cross views.

1. Access to the public car park 2. Communal garden and playground 3. Community facilities building 4. Townhouses 5. Duplex penthouses

The dwellings are arranged around an open courtyard, a hollow square, which allows communal space to be maximised in the form of a large landscaped garden with play area, bounded on three sides by residential accommodation and, on the fourth side, by a community facilities building.

This intervention took place in the interior of a 1920s office building. With a 4.50 m height between supporting structures and large 3 m-high windows on the facade, the monumentality of the space enabled a layout to be implemented with dual interpretation: a compartmentalized base up to 1.20 m incorporating parallel rows of desks and a free space above this height. The choice of walnut for the furniture and the storage systems further enhances the perception of this dual landscape.

1. Plazas 2. Underground car park 3. Access to the car park

The two five-storey blocks create two open public spaces which serve as small-scale, easily-maintained plazas which the buildings centre on. The twelve-storey tower emerges from a three-storey block. Roads are located on the outer limits of the plot.

In downtown ‘s-Hertogenbosch a former garage had been vacant for over fifteen years. A couple, both designers, purchased the building and made it their dwelling and their workplace. While the facade was being restored, it was discovered that the original sign, later reclaimed, had been panelled over. Opening the sliding front doors reveals views through to the back garden.

The need to join forces lies behind this coworking space in existing premises where several architects and designers share work, meeting and workshop areas. With minimal action on what they found there, the architects installed a glass cube at the centre of the room to house the mock-up workshop while the rest of the main space is open-plan. There are permanent sight lines between all areas.
