This competition in Oirschot is the first within the program 'A new construction culture', and is initiated by College van Rijksbouwmeesters to stimulate biobased and nature-inclusive construction. The teams were asked to provide an urban and landscape vision for De Kemmer in Oirschot. Our urban plan includes an realistic and innovative combination of biobased and nature-inclusive housing for a healthy living environment in the sub-area.

The model of Hofbogenpark is on exhibition!

Last Tuesday Municipality of Rotterdam welcomed its citizens in the hall of Rotterdam Library to see the models of the seven new city projects, which are now part of the exhibition called 'Rotterdam is going green'. It was great to see everyone converse openly and enthusiastically about the new green Hofbogenpark plan.

The four-part documentary series Visionen Bauen follows designers around the world, who are seeking solutions to the most pressing challenges of our time. The third episode, set in Rotterdam, focuses on the De Urbanisten and our approach to re-imagine the city as a nature-inclusive and climate adaptive space.

Sunday, August 21, Florian Boer passed away at the age of 53 in the presence of his loved ones. Florian had been ill for a long time and was preparing for his last phase of life. Until the last moment, he remained active in his work.

With Florian, we lose a passionate, inspiring, and warm friend and colleague. We will miss him very much.

Biobased Oirschot!

People thrive best when we restore our bond with nature and when we generously allow flora and fauna into our living environment. With this conviction we presented our proposal for a new biobased neighborhood in Oirschot.
