These arise from a social context in and the fascination for locations, spaces, (waste)materials, craftsmanship and constructions. The objects bring people together by asking them to act, participate or organize an activity. The projects are developed and built from the potential that is present in an area. Several projects are currently in development and implementation: Foldingsauna (mobile sauna for a special feeling of freedom and relaxation), Swingpavilion (pavilion with about 25 swings for Tolhuistuin (old shell land, Amsterdam), Buijtenkeuken, (part of project Buijtenland, Rhoon), Harvest-and knowlegde map of Zaanstreek (for urban agriculture projects of Bas Husslage (together with Dirk Overduin Studio) Rolling Stock (draft for stage, bar and toilets in Station Zone, Tilburg).
