Experimenting with a clear goal or a realistic vision is what makes concept development a challenging and important task. Adding value and making a place or city more resilient through ‘out of the box’ concepts, in order to give the user a new experience, is what motivates me.
My strength lies in analyzing the problem and developing unique concepts using different presentation techniques. Working in a team or with other stakeholders is an important condition for strengthening this power. A good example is my first project at The Men of Foam: a new real estate strategy for NIBC offices in The Hague.
To keep working efficiently, it is important to undertake other things as well. Sport, playing the piano or discovering new places in the city give me inspiration to generate new ideas.
