Maha Plus
Established in 2015 by Saskia van Hofwegen and Dian Iskandar to address the absence of female representation in Amsterdam's streetwear market, Maha has since undergone a transformative journey. Evolving from its roots as a female-driven streetwear destination, Maha aspires to be more than a retail space. It aims to be the heartbeat of its community, whether it be by shopping, enjoying a cup of coffee, or attending one of the engaging community events hosted in the space. In pursuit of this vision, Maha Amsterdam partnered with Ninetynine to bring the Maha Plus project to life. This new location is not just a store; it is a community hub, a space designed to connect, unwind, and inspire. Maha Plus serves as a cozy and inviting atmosphere whe... More

PETS & HUMANS - Positive House
Architect Hector Ruiz Velázquez has been working and researching housing in large cities for years, spatially and conceptually expanding square meters into cubic meters. The equivalent on the domestic scale of the strategy of occupying cities more densely instead of making them grow in a disorganized way without controlling the void. The objective is sustainable in itself, and in terms of energy consumption, as well as optimization of maintenance resources.

The perpetuation of the cooperation between KU Leuven (Catholic University of Louvain) and VIVES college university has become a fact with the realisation of the KU Leuven Campus in Bruges.

COMMUNITY CENTRE H55
The CC H55 shape results of its location in the urban fabric and topographic area. It starts in a movement as an extension from the peak-facade of the adjacent building towards the clock tower of the church ending in a high peak. The roof structure of the CC H55 is an application of the traditional character of the surrounding buildings with a contemporary touch of style. The high peak refers to the highly gothic style of Prague, city of a hundred spires, and gives a dialogue with the clock tower of the church.
The shape of the CC H55 is lowered in the middle to leave an open view to the garden from the street level and give easily independent pedestrian access to the garden. The parabolic movement provides the cellared level partially... More
