The “Floating” Willow Dome
Keizersgracht 157
While it isn’t truly floating its located right on the side of the canal in front of “Café Brandon” a local pub that’s one of the oldest in Amsterdam (established 1626). Creating a much needed refuge for city goers to escape the tourists, relax, share a pint or just watch the boats roll by. Co-created with Bio-artist Mamoun Nukumanu from NYC.
Park X Park, Parking Space Conversion Project
Kattenburgerstraat 5
Inspired by Amsterdam’s commitment to remove 10,000 parking spaces by 2025 I partnered with Marineterrein Park, Bio-artist Mamoun Nukumanu and various residents to show the possibilities just one small parking space can have. By using natural materials and promoting sustainable architecture, we hope to inspire others to create similar green spaces around the city.
The Duck Dome
Herengracht 150
Polluted and filled with garbage. This willow dome was constructed to the breath live into an otherwise dead area of the gracht and create some much needed refuge for the wild life of Amsterdam. Upon constructing the dome we stumbled on a ducks nest right on the edge of the canal, fully exposed to boats and passersby. We decided to use the willows help protect the nest and to create a more welcoming space for the ducks that would be otherwise stepped on. Co-created with Bio-artist Mamoun Nukumanu from NYC.
