Becoming Anna-Eva Bergmann at Nasjonalmuseet i Oslo
Together with ZUS from Rotterdam and Schipper Bosch have we developed the masterplan for De Nieuwe Stad, a redevelopment of a former toothpaste factory in the outskirts of Amersfoort. The site is around 55.000 m2, the first two new residential buildings are now in planning, a triangular building by Dyvik Kahlen and a tower developed by Studio Muoto from Paris.
Together with Zak Group we designed the new "Idea House 3" shop for the Walker Art Centre in Minneapolis. "Idea House 3 is a contemporary design store that celebrates iconic design, sustainable practices, and timeless objects. Rotating collections are brought to life in a modular, exhibition-style presentation reminiscent of the rooms in a home, inviting you to interact with design objects and to imagine how they might enhance your own spaces."
Book - "Dyvik Kahlen In Practice, Villa Ruba" is out now. For the fourth book in the In Practice series, we explore the design process of Villa RuBa, located near Arnhem. Together with Fabrizio Ballabio, we develop the compositional research related to the historic typology of the villa and to the specificities of the sloping park in which it is located, and reveal how Virtual Reality is used to investigate the spatiality of the project before its realisation on the construction site. Additional contributions evoke the role of annotation as a design tool, the ambivalence of a classical and vernacular project, and the entanglement of contemporary architecture with pop culture. Texts by Fabrizio Ballabio, Benoît Burquel, Benoît Vandenbulcke, Christopher Dyvik, Max Kahlen, Emma Letizia Jones, Pieterjan Ginckels, Monika Pattern, Kong DJ, Thomas Weaver and Harold Fallon. You can buy the book from Copyright Bookshop, Borgerhoff and Lamberigts or Amazon

Lecture - 'A House and its Ideal Neighbour' lecture at Melbourne School of Design, Tuesday 5th of October. Our house will be Building 2 from Klingelbeek and the ideal neighbour would be the Hopkins House by Michael and Patty Hopkins.
The Vinyl house is characterised by three key elements: The ‘Main House’ is defined by an efficient, compact, pre- fabricated wooden structure, optimised for short spans and minimal material use. The quality of this ground floor lies in its openness and immidiate relationship to the external landscape. The ‘Umbrella’, is a light-weight glass roof with integrated solar panels, and the ‘Outdoor Living Room’ is located between the main house and the ‘Umbrella’ roof, offering a special and surprising external room, used as extension of the living space - a stove, sun bed, barbecue, jacuzzi or conservatory for growing plants, use it however you want. The house is designed with the aim of using timber and recycled plastics and to achieve an Outstanding BREEAM rating.
Lecture - “Ambiguous Architecture & Inhabitable Structures”. Together with Alexander Fthenakis we will discuss our respective approach to teaching at the TU München and the Royal College of Art in London.

Lecture - We will give a lecture at Bergen Architecture School on the 5th of May.

‘Making Elephants’
First year students at the Architectural Association presenting their final proposals for a Viaduct in London. No program was given and no problem to solve except connecting one point with another. The proposals – some extremely light, dead heavy, slow or fast, some very prominent others blend with their context, some feel like elephants and some like giraffes. Like mute commuters the structures cut through the city without interfering. There is no interior – pure exterior. (Image by Susanna Steuerman-Kinston, AA First Year)
