Experience
I'm an enthusiastic young architect recently graduated at the Technical University of Delft and living in Amsterdam. I gained experience as an intern and architectural consultant at Office for Metropolitan Architecture in Rotterdam and Van Dongen-Koschuch in Amsterdam. In my own practice ''Unknown Architects'', which I co-founded in 2012, I was in charge of projects from concept to construction and learned to work within sensitive existing contexts. My graduation project ‘’The Place of Work’’, which focuses on new ways of working for civil servants by applying a series of interventions to an existing building, is nominated for the RIBA Silver Medal and Archiprix NL.
