Vote for our design

Recently my boyfriend and I joined a design contest here in Amsterdam. The assignment was to design an apartment with the intention of actually buying or renting it later. So we designed our dream apartment with a studio that we can afford at this point in our life. If you like you can help us by voting here and click on the most right star. Thank you very much and I'll keep you posted.

Here you can see the design & story below (in dutch)

Walk the line

Recently the second part of the 'The high line' in NY was finished. I remember I saw the first part a few years ago in a magazine and I was so fascinated by the fact they used an old subway line as a  base for a park. The result is so much more then only a park, it becomes the glue that connects the buildings and a place for people to meet.
