    Location
    Rotterdam, Maashaven
    Founded
    Practising since 2014

    An architecture office in Rotterdam. We make public buildings and homes from stone, brick, lime and earth, and we test every material before we draw with it.

    The practice

    Buildings should get better as they weather. We choose materials for how they will age, then design the details that let them.

    The office is fourteen people: architects, an engineer, a materials researcher and two model makers. Every project is led by a partner from the first meeting to handover.

    We keep a library of physical samples and a record of how each one has aged on our roof since 2015. Clients are welcome to visit it before a single drawing is made.

    • Marit VeldFounding partner, architectLeads the bathhouse and housing work. Trained as a stonemason before studying architecture.
    • Chidi OkonjoFounding partner, engineerStructural engineer by training. Responsible for every building the office has made stand up without steel.
    • Aino PaarmaAssociate, material researchRuns the sample library: 600 bricks, tiles, limes and earths, each with a test record.

    What we do

    New buildings
    Public, cultural and housing projects from first sketch to the last snag list. We stay on site through construction.
    Usually 600 to 5,000 m²
    Reuse and retrofit
    We start by surveying what is already there and keep as much of it as the structure allows. Demolition is the last option, not the first.
    Industrial and heritage shells
    Material research
    Test panels, kiln trials and long-term weathering studies for clients who want to know how a surface will look in thirty years.
    Commissioned alongside or alone
    Feasibility and competitions
    Short, fixed-fee studies that tell you whether a site can carry the brief, and what it will cost, before you commit.
    Four to eight weeks

    They spent the first month in the valley with us, testing which stone the spring water would stain and which it would leave alone. Four years later the pools look the way they promised they would.
