Remaining
Remaining means more than what actually doesn't fit in anywhere, but what I have made and want to show is actually a synonym for other. Expect anything and everything in this category such as art objects, logos and etc.
War Monument
The monument stands proudly as a tribute to the victims of war atop a mountain, with an oxidized metallic structure reminiscent of the grim beauty of a spike minefield. The iron spikes rise from the ground like memories of the tangled history of struggle and loss, a poignant symbol of the scars that wars leave behind. Together, they form a powerful homage to the unspeakable sacrifices made in the name of peace.
People and animals bank
The People-and-Animals-Bank is designed to create a unique connection between humans and animals. The idea behind this design is to stimulate interaction and co-existence in a natural, relaxed manner. The round, flowing shape encourages communication and gathering, while the layered structure offers different levels of comfort for both individuals and groups.
By using natural materials such as wood and earthy tones, the bench not only represents sustainability but also emphasizes the harmony between nature and the human environment. The design provides space for people to sit and for animals to nest comfortably, creating a symbiotic relationship that symbolizes peace and connection. This bench thus becomes a living symbol of mutual respect and bond between humans and animals, embedded in a sustainable and meaningful design. Perfect for parks, squares, and other outdoor spaces where nature is at the forefront.
Expo for war
My plan is to create an example similar to what is found on this page, where there is a comic, and the last panel contains such an example; I would prefer to abstract it a bit more myself. I want to do this because I want to give the viewer of this image open interpretation about what they see in it. So, they won't be 100% literal weapons but will be more composed of primary shapes. At its core, it’s mainly about the waste of steel on weapons. This idea stems from the described assignment.
During a project, I explored the psychology behind superpowers and the question: "If you could choose a superpower, which one would you want to have and what would you do with it?" This led to a comic about a hero with "Lavagenesis" – the power to control lava. This superhero ends a war with his power, but instead of destroying the weapons, he transforms them into a monument. This monument remains as a symbol and reminder of the war, a visual tribute to the power that can bring peace, but also to the darker side of struggle and conflict.
Rings of light
After I learned about people with nyctophobia, the fear of the dark, I began to think about how light could comfort them. I wanted to create something that could always be with them, without relying on large lamps or devices. A ring seemed perfect: small, portable, and personal. The idea of making a constantly glowing ring arose from the thought that such a thing is not only practical but can also provide comfort in dark moments. It was my way of bringing a bit of light and safety closer to them.
The ring must provide sufficient space for the battery and the LED system. This means that the thickness should be at least approximately 5-7 mm. For smaller batteries, the ring can be slightly thinner, but that will result in a shorter battery life. The height of the ring depends on the size of the battery and the LED setup. A height of 2-4 mm on top of the standard ring height is likely sufficient for the LED components. A wider ring, about 6-8 mm, can help to neatly accommodate everything in the casing without feeling too heavy. There are ultra-thin, flexible batteries that are specially designed for wearables like rings or small gadgets. These can be bent to fit into the ring. If you are using an LED strip, it is likely a flexible nano-LED strip, as these are small enough for a ring design. The ring can be charged via a wireless charging station.
T-Shirt
For this design, I created a unique print for a T-shirt. The design combines personal elements, such as a subtle reference to my name, with my passion for architecture. It is built around large, mirrored letters 'P', which are centrally placed on the back of the shirt. The clean lines and geometric layout of the design evoke associations with blueprints and architectural structures, creating a direct link to my interest and background in architecture. The use of black-and-white contrasts emphasizes the graphic quality of the design and gives it a timeless appeal. This makes the T-shirt not just a fashion item, but also a statement that brings together design and personality.
Expanding pulley lamp
This represents an expanding disk. In turning sheave d to the right or left, a similar motion is exerted on wheel c, which, by means of curved slots in it, pushes out or inward the studs attached to the arms of the pulley, thus increasing or reduced. of the disk.
Twister meets trash
Finding a solution to the litter problem based on a major existing problem that could be heard from the neighborhood. From concept to a project that can be realized, which can be traced from an intervention with a final impression as a thread.
There were many seagulls at the location that collected waste from the waste bins and that fell straight onto the street together with the waste already lying around, this was really a problem that had to be tackled. I wanted to design trash cans that are closed so that the seagulls can't get anything out of them. There are 5 different waste bins that separate waste and are maintained by the neighborhood, which can use it for, for example, a nearby school to provide educational lessons on the aspect of reuse.
I want to make an interactive Twister field from aval collected from the neighborhood, which I then put in the ground and seal with natural epoxy. This concept stems from my interest in collecting waste and reusing materials to give those materials a new purpose.
Researching which plants should be placed there and how do I direct people to create a meeting place and interaction must be stimulated by the design. Maybe there should be something that compels people to do a game or activity together. To what extent are there levels between meeting each other? It may be interesting that there is a difference here. Creating interaction between people through activities. Creating layers of connection between people and/or animals. Destination of the concept is leading for the creation of different interactions and/or tranquility. How can I get inspiration from existing projects and to what extent do I want to apply this?
Train station Overvecht
Approach of the train station in Overvecht to direct people more efficiently to the location. Interwoven tree branches create a sense of equality.
These references describe the various elements that make a place enjoyable, such as the level of human interaction, accessibility, diversity and inclusivity, green spaces, and urban design. By considering these aspects when creating a place, one can contribute to creating an environment that people want to use and where they feel at home.
Spill the tea
A board game created to get to know each other from a different perspective based on the past, present and future.
The player whose turn it is answers the question for himself on his chalkboard. The other players try to guess what the player whose turn it is would answer and write it on their chalkboard. Be careful that your fellow players cannot see your answer! Each player who has received points takes a number of steps on the board equal to the number of points they have just received. Now it is the next player's turn. The turns go clockwise. The player who reaches 10 points first and is on the end square wins!
PREPARATION
Unfold the game board and place it on the table. Place the purple 'past' cards on the purple box, the yellow 'present' cards on the yellow box and the green 'future' cards on the green box. Place the dice on the table and give each player a chalkboard and piece of chalk. Each player chooses a pawn and places it on the starting space.
THE GAME
The player who has had the most pets starts by rolling the die and taking a card that matches the color on the die. The player reads the question on the card so that all players can hear it clearly.
SCORING
1 point if the guessed answer is recognizable or is an answer you could have given, but does not match what you wrote on your chalkboard. 2 points if the guessed answer matches the answer on your chalkboard, but is not exactly the same. 3 points if the guessed answer is exactly the same as the answer on your chalkboard. When all players have written down an answer, the player to the left of the player whose turn it is shows his answer, then the other players follow in clockwise order. Finally, the player whose turn it is shows his answer and awards the points.
Memory Lane
A VR experience with a well-founded story. To play the game you have to go through all 7 memories of either the girl or the boy and at the end the question arises: if you get it right, you can go to good and if you get it wrong, you have to go to the bad. Video 1 is of 2 people playing it and the 2nd video is the music that you can play with it.
Welcome, Everything will be alright. You will follow Memory Lane to find what you seek. If you wish to leave a memory, step on the cross on the floor and close your eyes, and you will find yourself in a new memory. Follow your heart…
Reshaped Store Shelf
An autonomous image of a supermarket shelf translated from the concept of positive and negative shapes. By also placing a scattering over it, it gives a knocked-out-of-shape feeling.
Balance where it seems like your head is controlling it with telekinesis. And it looks like body parts. Wrong parts where it gives you guidance, it is abrupt, it resembles traffic signs that determine your direction. The lines could be a road and the wooden ones represent the things you encounter in life. A kind of goals, for example, that you would like to achieve or the things you have to do to ultimately reach your end point. Tight but fragile. The color gives the corpse a dying feeling at the end of its life. They are all 2D surfaces that form a completely 3D form.
Rem Koolhaas lamp
A self-designed lamp based on the work of Rem Koolhaas. That was the sentence with which I started designing this lamp. I looked at his design and construction techniques. These points are incorporated into the lamp.
When designing this lamp, I looked at his style, design and construction techniques, and I discovered that when he designs a building, the skeleton is made as before and the windows are literally placed on top. I also wanted to apply this by first make a skeleton and then simply place glass behind it so that the skeleton remains visible. I chose square windows because most of the buildings he designed have this shape. In the Netherlands his architectural style is seen as a postmodernist style. In my first version I used an LED strip that I ran criss-cross through the lamp. I later replaced this with an LED lamp that is in the middle.
Remment Lucas Koolhaas born in Rotterdam, November 17, 1944 is a Dutch architect. Rem Koolhaas founded the Office for Metropolitan Architecture in 1975 together with Elia and Zoe Zenghelis and Madelon Vriesendorp. After working as a journalist and screenwriter before becoming an architect, Koolhaas graduated from the Architectural Association in London. In 1995, his book S,M,L,XL summarized OMA's work and made connections between contemporary society and architecture. He offers a truly unique perspective that focuses on changing urban conditions around the world and the role of retail and consumption in today's society.
Green rain
For Intratuin, we as a group have designed a flower box/rain barrel that purifies water so that you can spray your garden with purified water from heaven. By doing this you do not waste water.
According to our calculations, the planter could hold approximately 80 liters of water. We have tried to develop this cross-section as technically as possible, but we do not know whether it would actually work this way as we have not been able to test it. In any case, we are very satisfied with it. We have also made working drawings of this and we have them in our research book. Finally, we made a 3D print for this design.
For this project we investigated which plants can be used to purify water. There are a number of plants that are already used to purify water. These are the following plants: the Great Cattail, the Mattenbies, Reed and the Yellow Iris. We looked into this and found out which plants would be most suitable for our planter. The plants I just mentioned provide oxygen to the bacteria that purify the water all year round.
Fire % Metal
Is it fire or is it metal, is it against each other or is it with each other. These are questions that this art object should raise. Both materials have their own properties and this can be in both a negative and positive sense.
In traditional Chinese philosophy, five elements are distinguished. The Chinese use this as a classification for all natural phenomena. The five elements are applied in Feng shui, astrology, traditional Chinese medicine, music, martial arts and military decisions. The elements are also associated with emotions, tastes, colors, organs and cardinal directions. Each season is influenced by an element, with the Chinese considering late summer as the fifth (Earth) season. In Japanese philosophy, Earth, Water, Fire, Wind and Void are considered the five elements.
The difference between fire and metal is that metal is materialistic and tangible, while fire is not touchable. Metal is also not mobile, while if you heat metal with fire it becomes liquid, making it mobile. But if you make it in a special form you can get it moving, think of gears for example, that's why I designed a coastal object that seems to move because it looks like a flame and when you think about fire it only moves when you think about gears that moves too.
The Fire Animals are: Snake, Horse and Goat
Firework
The element Fire (red) represents summer. Fire is extrovert and likes to take charge, is ambitious and wants to make a change. Fire seeks power and takes many risks. Fire can make others enthusiastic about something, but it withdraws in the face of setbacks and then becomes disappointed. Fire is related to the planet Mars.
Positive aspects: passion, joy, passionate, dynamic, vital, enthusiastic, radiant, goal-oriented, decisive
Negative sides: blinding, volatile, tendency to arrogance, aggressive, selfishness, self-centered
The Metal Animals are: Monkey, Rooster and Dog
Metal
The element Metal (white) represents autumn. Metal can concentrate well and sink into something. That gives Metaal an unyielding and resolute character. A Metal type wants the best and often stands up for people who are less fortunate or less fortunate. The goal of Metaal is to bring order to the world. Metal is independence and has its own opinion and point of view, which can lead to black and white thoughts. Metal is related to the planet Venus.
Positive aspects: perseverance, sense of duty, sense of responsibility, willingness to take risks, logical thinking, wisdom, striving for the best, communicative, social
Negative sides: tendency to hardness, sadness, melancholic, nostalgic
Statue of Liberty
Statue of liberty of a man with wings on his head, these wings are white doves of peace, this is an international symbol and the personification of peace and freedom. This man holds them above his head as a kind of prize because freedom is priceless and important in this society.
This image is about freedom of expression, which means that every citizen can express his opinion in public on any subject. However, this does have limits: you are of course not allowed to call for hatred or offend people unnecessarily.
I think it is important that freedom is highlighted and I think it is important that art is made of this. In general, birds are a symbol of the barely accessible and of the freedom that the soul strives for. Freedom remains important in our world because there are always groups that do not feel free.
VT-Wonen
I designed a stand for VT-Wonen where there is room to have a drink and admire their new collection of furniture. The corporate identity of VT-Wonen had to be taken into account.
Pepsi
I designed a stand for Pepsi, where there is room to have a drink and test the new flavors. I also made a new design for it
Pepsi logo and applied it to the counter that I also designed myself. I put this in a one-way position so that people go past the counter and enter the
see a new Pepsi flavor and want to buy it to try it out.
Pepsi's target group is mainly young people and students, but also adults. These people must be attracted to this position. And because they have to walk through it and a lot of it
The use of color attracts their attention so that they will buy something.
