The design question

How can a growing practice fit workspaces, meeting rooms, an archive and shared facilities into an industrial building?

My contribution

Working with project architect Ronald van Nugteren and the West 8 team, I contributed from feasibility and space planning through design development, technical drawings and site coordination. The work included the stair and mezzanine, meeting spaces, materials, installations and checks during construction.

The value

Spatial organisation and architectural detail support the daily operation of the studio, carrying the design from early layout to implementation.

Interior fit-out: West 8. My role: assistant designer, 2019–2020, within the West 8 team. Fenix I base building and redevelopment: Mei architects and planners.
