Green building Methods
-Durable
-Sensible
-Pleasurable
-Beautiful
in honour of mother nature
Proposing the ideal building method:
Green Building, in my personal view, is strongly overrated. and as a term, often abused. For me, green building, is a building method that is inspired by and in honour of Mother Nature. The inspiration comes from the quest for durability, availability, simplicity of use, cost effectiveness and finally, the least impacting to our natural environment. The inspiration does not end with the building blocks, they are just the beginning. Given the fact, that we all are children of Mother Nature, we function best in an environment that is inspired by the shapes, proportions and light quality of the natural. There the design and in this case the organic design is what determines true sustainability.
​
As long as we are sustaining our own wellness and the wellness of the community, the physical part of sustainability will follow naturally.
​
Green building is part of my DNA, is part of the way my brain is wired and is as flexible as nature itself
​
I am proposing a building method that consist of two proven sustainable building materials, both applied with a proven construction method to construct a building designed with organic architectural design principles.
This method has the potential to revolutionise the future of construction all over the world. Needed now, is the realisation of a prototype to start a brand new morphologic field!
​
I am confident that this method is viable, either for a prototype or directly as the chosen application.
Two of the most sustainable and renewable materials on this earth with unsurpassed qualities, Bamboo and Hemp, brought together and synthesised in a revolutionary building method that is low- impact, quick, easy and especially beautiful. Organic architecture becomes the gateway to the process of us slowly merging back and engaging with our natural environment.
Organic Design

bamboo support structures
+
monolithic wall, floor and roof systems filled in with durable hemp-crete
The end result
Sustainable and green structures, easy to construct and fit for all climate types, all budgets and all comfort and luxury requirements. All brought together by an organic design approach that nourishes our soul and harmonises us with our natural environment and each other. As the architect, I would be honoured to facilitate this whole process for you.
