Beach house (2013)
 
Interior design of a beach house in an old World War II bunker, conceptualised for a poet and his 5 year-old son. 
 
The design adresses both the poet's view of space and the needs of the child for whom the rough concrete interior volumes are way-too-big. Hence, rooms for the adult are shaped to the concept: "It are not my walls that shape and divide my rooms, but it's my furniture that determines the division and forms the space.".
 
A poetic design is sustained throughout, in harmony with the original building, even in the utility rooms such as bathroom. The bed and furniture have been designed as to scale down the volumes and as to allow the child to feel home in a cosy environment.
 
 
Het Marientje (Marine house, 2012)
 
This temporal dwelling is based on an archetipical house.
It is designed for a diver.
 
The blue color expresses the underwater world. Dreams and environment melt together.
 
The whole house is adapted to the person. A place for the scuba tank, a shower, a bed,a table, a kitchen and a toilet, a place to hang the wet things.
 
All the forms of the house are based on the underwater life. The house is sustained partly by land and partly by coral-shaped pillars arsing out of the lake. The underwater world empowers the diver's environment.
 
Reborn by Art and Nature (2014)
 
Design of dwellings for a temporary stay to meditate through art and nature; recreational painting is possible in an adapted studio or out in the ecological reserve.

Bathing can be done outside, evoking the feeling and sound of warm rain.
 
The shape of the new, added volumes follows the undulating landscape of the dunes, while juxtaposition of old and new - with overhanging green roofs - allows to integrate and protect the old historical royal heritage building.
 
 
 
'Het normale' (2015)
 
'Normal' is a scenographic interior assignment of a cultural centre for the social art group, ‘Unie der Zorgelozen’, Kortrijk, Belgium.
 
This group consists of a large social mix and aims at re-inventing local traditional links between art and society, while trying to escape from established society and normality. Nothing is strange.
 
The developed design concept is an interior without rules and standards, in which nature and the way of traditional life of indigenous peoples are the source of inspiration.
 
Moreover, new solutions were sought for conventional western approaches: the resulting design leads people to inner reflection.
