Last week contractor Dura Vermeer was breaking ground for the Tasmanhof. After completion of this social housing project by local cooperation HaagWonen in Summer 2014 neighbours will start to build the community garden Zeeheldentuin. DGJ Architects & Landscapes have joined this initiative of locals ever since their choice fell on the vibrant Zeehelden neighbourhood in 2012. Now we are proud to sponsor them with a design that is currently being developed every monday with volunteers at our studio. For DGJ as for many other volunteers, neighbours and children the Zeeheldentuin is a dream becoming true. At DGJ we are most satisfied that so many inhabitants with help of the cooperation, local entrepreneurs, the city of The Hague and many supporting foundations could gather behind one manyfold design. We are sensing this a our most warm welcome in our newly chosen hometown.

June 21 2012 - Federico Curiel awarded by Delta Alliance at Rio+20

The Delta Alliance Young Professionals Awarding ceremony at the Rio plus 20 honored DGJ's Federico ‘Freddy’ Curiel on a global podium.

The Awarding ceremony of the Delta Alliance Young Professionals Award took place in the UNEP pavilion at the Rio plus 20 Conference of Sustainable Development. Joop Atsma, State Secretary of the Dutch Ministry for Infrastructure and Environment, and Tineke Huizinga (Chair of the International Governing Board of Delta Alliance and Chair of the International Jury of the Delta Alliance Young Professional Award) together handed the award to the three winning teams of the award.

During the event, the award winners personally presented their innovative solutions for the Pearl Delta (PR of China, Freddy Curiel), the Rhine-Meuse Delta (The Netherlands, Sander van Rooij, Emil Kuijs, Bert van Bueren) and the Sacramento – San Joaquin Delta (California-USA, Richard Fisher, Ryan Whipple).

Curiel's project presents a multi-layered strategy for a sustainable management of the Pearl River Delta (PRD). Re-Generation Delta proposes a large scale micro-algae harvesting system, converting the farmland located by the coastline of the PRD into large scale open air harvesting-ponds. The newly established infrastructure will be realized to function as a physical barrier preventing eventual water flooding.

The winning teams will receive financial and organizational support to further elaborate their proposal in collaboration with the Dutch Wing, together with one of the eleven international Wings of the Delta Alliance.

DGJ is proud to contribute to the Rio+20 Conference, world leaders, along with thousands of participants shape how we can reduce poverty, advance social equity and ensure environmental protection on an ever more crowded planet to get to the future we want 20 years after the 1992 UN Conference on Environment and Development in Rio. uncsd2012.org

Apr 20 2012 - Cadavre Exquis / exhibition / opening / ravb.nl

dutch architecture with landscape methods vol. 3

laboratory design analysis

Matthew Skjonsberg west8.nl / Daniel Jauslin dgj.eu / tudelft.nl

Contemporary architecture is increasingly influenced by the concept of landscape, and this is particularly the case in the Netherlands. Like at many other places, a new mindset is emerging, transforming the core values of the disciplines of architecture and urbanism with the notion of the organization of architectural space as a landscape. Through experiments, our lab develops methods to analyse such phenomena in focused studies of specific cases, understanding how architects use landscape not only as a metaphor, but also as a method to design buildings.  <p> 32 students selected and analyzed outstanding, built work of a wide field of architects from four generations of Dutch practitioners starting with Huig Maaskant (founder of the RAvB), Wim Quist, OMA, SANAA, Mecanoo, MVRDV, NOX, De Zwarte Hond, NL-Architects, Onyx, FACT, and MonderschijnMoonen. The students drew and built models of their analyses, where four layers are detachable as separate entities, and then played a game the surrealists called Cadavre Exquis.  <p>The result is a dismantled, floating olympic village for Rotterdam, which is exhibited at its site in the historic docklands RDM on the Heijplaat. Next generations are making their own city - off-iabr2012.

Apr 19 2012 - Lecture evening ifbau - Planning strategies between technology and building culture

Lecture Evening - Holistic Living Concepts

Lecturers: Hans Drexler, DGJ architects, Sebastian El Khouli, BGP architects

Sustainable Architecture demands an own design and mental attitude - an idea, an image, a vision of what architecture is or can be, and that is why it has always a utopian character. The aim is to improve architecture noticeably, instead of reducing the negative impact on the environment.

04/2012 - competitiononline - Award 2012 for Marketing+Architecture

In the newly designed Raiffeisen office space on the cross, the operating principle of the bank switch was overcome as a barrier between customers and employees. The store presents itself instead as "open bank", a space of encounter. Curved walls articulate the spatial continuum and create diverse visual links. They also mediate between open and discrete spaces that are used for counseling sessions and internal meetings. Portraits of famous neighborhood residents formed the motive for the digitally milled paneling and focus on the local roots of the bank. Bright colors help in conjunction with the optimized natural lighting the friendly atmosphere of the office.

Dec 12 2011 - Daniel Jauslin "Tuin- en Landschapsarchitect"

Daniel Jauslin has passed the Staatsexamen as "Tuin- en Landschapsarchitect" (Garden and Landscape Architect) in The Hague. Throughout the year 2011 he was tested by the exam-committee on 14 years of experience, 3 samples of work, 35 pages of thesis and a 8 day design project.
Of these 14 years he presented West8s Expoparc of Yverdon-les-Bains 2002, DGJs Landscape Projects for Zollikon (dgj013) a Visitor's Centre at Oostvaardersplassen near Lelystad (dgj143).
The Thesis was entitled "Landscape Methods in Architecture" and gave a introduction on landscape design theory in it's applicability to architecture, which is part of his current phd project in Delft.
The Design Assignment of a new A3 Highway from Amsterdam to Rotterdam (a bad idea of the local right wing minority) was tackled as a trick question. It turned into "A0: Europe's first Zero Emission Highway" that would be accessible only for electrical cars and covered with solar panels that reflect the Dutch sky - like an old waterway though the green polders. Hopefully anybody would reject this plan. It is dedicated as a tribute to the collective performance of 20th century planners in the Netherlands that conceived the Randstad and preserved the Green Hart by never building this once planned traffic route.
The new Diploma will legalize DGJ's practice, research and teaching of Landscape Architecture. By 2012 we will use the name “DGJ Architects & Landscapes" for the Rotterdam and Hong Kong branches.

‘Aesthetics of Sustainable Architecture’

17 November 2011 | 17:30 - 17 November 2011 place: BK City, BK.CZ. A

Sang Lee (Chair of Public Building, faculty of Architecture TU Delft) and guests are debating on the aesthetic potentials of sustainable architecture and its practice. In contrast to the current model where sustainability is characterized through a collection of mechanistic parts or prescriptive certification schemes, this book opens a new area of scholarship and discourse in the design and production of sustainable architecture: one that is based in aesthetics. At its very core, the book underlines the connection that exists between our approach to the environment and sustainability on one hand, and our approach to certain aesthetic propositions and practices on the other.

On May 20, the West 8 installation 'Il Paradiso Nascosto' (The Stolen Paradise) for the MAXXI Museum's exhibition series Nature was opened to the public. The exhibition features  a light, sensuous installation accompanied by seven of West 8’s projects which share the same spirit of poetic narrative as a dialogue between the artificial and the natural.

DGJ is proud that the Bridges of Borneo Sporenburg, represented by two models built by Vincent de Rijk in 1998 for Engineer meets Poet Exhibition at Aedes Berlin have been selected out of West 8's large oeuvre. The bridges that have become a key feature to Borneo Sporenburg plan in Amsterdam where designed at West 8 by Adriaan Geuze, Cyrus Clark and Daniel Jauslin (later co-founder of DGJ) between 1997 and 1999.

The exhibition is the second event in the NATURE series to establish a dialogue between international contemporary architecture and the museum (designed by Zaha Hadid) itself.

Okt 21 2010 - How Do You Landscape? Here&There - 2nd Lecture Series TU Delft

How do you Landscape? Here & There.

From October 2010 on the Landscape Architecture chair is to organise a public lecture on the place of landscape in the work of Dutch and international designers every 3rd Thursday of the month. The focus of this 2nd lecture series is on the specific conditions of work in their home or in international context. If landscape is about the meaning of place, what is the influence of that specific place on a designers working attitude? Each session a designer from "here", working in or from the Netherlands will meet a designer from "there". Differences and similarities of the two speakers are to be discussed with questions from the audience.

21 October Silvia Karres (Karres en Brands) NL & Erik Dhont B

16 December Berno Strootman NL & Joaõ Gomes da Silva P

Okt 10 2010 - DGJ at SB10 in Maastricht! 10.-13.10. 2010

Sustainable building is not a vision for the future but very much a current issue and absolutely essential. In the Maas-Rijn Euregion there is a large amount of knowledge available. The international conference Sustainable Building 2010 (SB10) wishes to be a platform for that knowledge where examples of sustainable building and research can be displayed.

 

SB10 is an applied scientific conference which focuses on the practice of sustainable building. It translates a variety of scientific topics into a very complete and high-quality programme, with numerous top speakers and enough room for Euroregional excursions and activities. This lends the three day conference an interesting and pleasurable character. It is a must for everybody with a direct or indirect connection with sustainable building.
We are therefore pleased to invite you to the SB10 conference. We hope to see you on 11, 12 and 13 October in Maastricht, Hasselt, Liège and Aachen.
DGJ will present their Paper "The Minimum Impact House Applications of the Frankfurt Prototype for sustainable building in Cities of the European Rhine Region" by Hans Drexler, Daniel Jauslin and Federico Curiel.

Looking forward to seeing you there! http://www.sb10.nl
