Patchwork IBA Parkstad (2022)
Internationale Bauaustellung Parkstad
For the first time in history, the Internationale Bauausstellung or IBA isbeing held outside Germany, in Parkstad- Limburg, the Netherlands. What started as an exhibition for modern construction in 1901, has developed into an urban planning instrument that often provides a powerful impulse to the local economy, public space and society.

De Antistad (2016)
Pionier van kleiner groeien
The Antistad shows the development history of the Netherlands' most aging, most transitional and, according to some, most failed city: Heerlen.
Decades of growth pushed the phenomenon of urban shrinkage to the background and raises the question: how do we grow smaller? How do we built cities smaller? Shrinkage as the accelerator of change.
