OUR DESIGN PRINCIPLES

Ruben van Wijngaarden - RVW Works - ontwerp principe context

Besides the programatic departure, the design is always based on the environmental characteristics. Only through this approach we believe the design comes to its full potential.

Ruben van Wijngaarden - RVW Works - ontwerp principe duurzaam

Sustainability has surpassed the trendy feature in a design but has become an integral role in the design. It has many faces like energy consumption, material use, flexibility, etc. Always aiming for minimalizing sources over the entire lifetime.

Ruben van Wijngaarden - RVW Works - ontwerp principe detail

Design of details is an essential part to visualize the character of the stucture. We also believe that detailling is key to the optimal functioning of the built.

Through the elaboration of construction drawings in 3D CAD software, we make sure that all single elements do match and align. This leads to the elimination of construction failures as much as possible before construction break ground.

Ooglijders Guesthouse Utrecht

In this project, led by Asnova Architecture, I cooperate with designteam Donders to draw for the elaborate project of Ooglijders Guesthouse in Utrecht. It is a beautiful transformation project, from a former schoolbuilding to high-end apartments. The combination of new and existing buildings makes for a complex and interesting project.

Summerstudio

In the summer of 2018, I participated in the summer program of 100 Fold Studio in Montana, USA. It was an incredible inspiring time involving a lot of personal development. The end-project was a new-to-be-build stairway and involved all stages from design to construction.

Construction finised by the contractor!

The large barn including two bed&breakfast facilities in Doornspijk (NL) has reached the point of being wind and waterproof! That means that the contractor's construction work is finished. The interior works will be executed by the client himself.
