The new school grounds, an ensemble consisting of a new construction, the converted municipal building, and the replacement building for the kindergarten, is anchored in the neighborhood by the new north-south axis. The exterior relationship between the new school complex and the existing Boostock school complex is resolved with the generous open stairway.

Architecture is a field at the crossroads of the arts and sciences, which is influenced by countless factors that can be difficult to identify explicitly.
The aim of this case study is to investigate the relationship between architectural space and its influence on the observer.
The question arises if a ML-aided algorithm could be trained to recognize and produce architectural designs according to certain qualitative criteria, like pleasingness or privacy.

Four towers, composed out of four disconnected walls, are the remainder of an hypothetical ruin of the "Architectenwoning Marc Dessauvage" and set the starting point of the proposal.
The interventions are based on developments made for Movement 2 in the previous semester.
The platforms create various individual spaces along the spiralling path from the bottom to the top of the project.

The "Replay" project was a summer workshop, with the goal of creating an exposition space by recycling the scarp wooden structure resulting from the first year's final project "House II".
The design and construction of the bar was my responsibility. It aimed to offer a space for two bartenders to work comfortably, by using the entire potential of the scrap and producing synergies between the bar and the rhythmic roof structure.
