Dementiestoel (Alzheimer Chair) is a visual representation of Alzheimer, translated into a chair.
In my post graduate year (interior) architecture at CHK Constantijn Huygens (art academy) in Kampen (1997), I attended a 9 day workshop by Beth Gali in Barcelona.
Academy exhibition and graduation of my study interior architecture and furniture design at CHK Constantijn Huygens (art academy) in Kampen, 1996. A line of furniture based on my interpretation of the lyrics to a song by Nina Simone.
A speaker made of an iron lampshade and an old speaker with the magnet in front of the membrane. Used for playing Nina Simone’s ‘Images’ during my academy exhibition that was based on this song.
Purkast nr.1 is a sculpture/cabinet made of PUR foam and wooden badminton rackets.
Internship of 4 months with Piet Hein Eek. In this period I learned a lot about designing and producing furniture.
Designed mutation to form different (living) spaces and eventually a house. This was a slightly re-written academy assignment. Instead of designing a house in a given pre-fab casco, I designed parameters for mutation of spaces and used the casco only as a location.
