The Hotel
New York City, US.
2024.
The Hotel is a collective thesis by Generation 32 of The Berlage that reimagines the hotel—both as building type and as a social realm of hospitality—through fourteen distinct architectural contributions housed within a single skyscraper, conceived as a landmark in New York City that condenses the city’s diversity into one vertical world.

What are the pitfalls of data-driven design and/or research? A question I presented to non-architects: Fayat alumni and members of The Belgian Leadership Project, at the Marie-Elisabeth Belpaire Building in Brussels.

Happy to have been invited by Juan Benavides to speak on behalf of Berlage's Generation 33 on our 2023 research project called 'Project Global: The Logistics of Milk & Timber' at the Architekturmuseum der TUM to students and teachers of the TUM Department of Architecture. As a group of fourteen architects (Generation 33), we looked at Estonia's logistical landscape through the lens of its two most profitable products: fresh milk and wooden prefabricated houses. This research eventually became a dossier (comprising diagrams, plans, and architectural projects) and a documentary.

On 18.10.2024, an informative session was held on the topic of the corridor at the University of Antwerp, for Master students in architecture. Invited by prof. Nicolas Petillon to the Master Studio 'Wooncultuur / the culture of dwelling', I spoke to the students about the history of the corridor, an architectural feature that only fully emerged in Western (domestic) architecture after 1650. To understand its cultural importance, two texts are crucial : 'Corridor Spaces' (2010) by Mark Jarzombek and 'Figures, Doors and Passages' (1978) by Robin Evans.

The housing crisis in the Netherlands has worsened living conditions. What can we as architects do?

As part of the TAXI Lectures at the University of Antwerp (Faculty of Design Sciences), this talk delves into the history of the corridor and—how in the Global North's architecture—domestic rooms changed from having multiple doors to having a single one.

"The aim of this BK Talks event is to reflect on the significance of producing extensive works for better understanding interior, housing, urban, or landscape design. This is achieved through bulky books, massive physical models, or large-format prints. Alongside large publications, large-scale architectural models (whether rough or highly sophisticated) serve as tools to stimulate thoughts and playful tools for understanding, interpreting, and imagining the materiality of architecture in its broader sense. Despite advancements in digital modelling offering advantages like quick prototyping and editing, analog models offer deeper experiential engagement in real space and provide a tactile and sensory experience."

"This public event and exhibition conclude the design master class, "We wrote a master plan on a piece of paper, but we lost it," led by Bristol-based duo John Wood and Paul Harrison. Throughout the two weeks, students explored ideas of space, performance, composition, comedy, and movement, which manifested themselves in four films, four structures, and four manifestos."
