Perspective

Harley Davidson Bangkok - Cafe- Shop Hybrid

Located at the rivr in an old fire station the location for this shop is very special.Therefor it was a tricky task to bring the corporate design

Exhibition Space - CIDI

Diamonds are real luxury. We want to bring this feeling to our exhibiton. Shiny, glossy diamonds, on a black floor are a real eye catcher

and we think that is the bestway to get the most attention of people walking by.

Public Space - Chalerma Park

By adding alot of trees and seatings underneath, the park offers many shaded areas. A area for foodtrucks invites passing by people to stop and take a rest

while enjoy some refreshing drink or snack. In the meanwhile kids can play in the, from the mainstreet far away located, activity area on a playground or a big fountain.

Public Space - Chalerma Park

The Chalerma Park in the center of Bangkok is a small park on an abandonned lot.The local community complains about shadow, seating and water problems. Another

disadvantage is the entrance which is located at the side streetand therefor many of the passing by people won’t enter the park

Diamond Tree - Diffusor

The tensegrity structure is a strong structure. Each piece keeps tension, sothe system is working. The diamond is said to be the hardest structure in

nature. The ‘Diamond Tree’ breaks these structures and ‘grows’ out of them.Same happens in hour homes. Perfect shaped rooms keep bad air stuck

inside. The ‘Diamond Tree’ will break this and set the fresh aromised air free.

RoTable - Working Desk

The RoTable is a working desk for a private home office. The main idear behind it was to createa design which is for small office rooms / apartments, but which offers a big working space.

So for every work and every room a easy solution can be found by rotating the tables.

Perspectives

RoTable - Working DeskThe RoTable is 190cm x 10cm big and therefor fits in many rooms. But if needed a second table

can be rotated outside and increase the working space by another 86cm. So the new messurementsare 276cm x 100cm or even 190cm x 100cm + 176cm x 90cm in L-shape.

an urban atmosphere.

Made out of plastic - Recycling Bin

Therby that I saw in my material research that you can make almost any shape out of plastic,I wanted to find inspiration for the recycling pin in nature. After a small research for natural containers,

I found the honeycombs which seemed like a perfect recycling container.Inspired by nature, the recycling bin should become an sculpture back in nature / public spaces.

Made out of metal- Door Handle

This Doorhandle gets its shape by one of the characteristics of metal : bending. A metal sheetis bended to form one handle. The shape should help the ergonomics of the hand.

The round shape keeps the hand protected from slipping of the handle.Like folding a paper to make a 3 dimensional object, this sheet is bended to make an stable object.
