Additional Information

Becoming an architect is a dream come true. Between construction plans, 'impossible' problems for which there is always a solution, and the wishes of the client, I feel completely at home. In the more than 15 years in which I have been working as an architect, I have built up a high level of customer satisfaction. I like challenge, short lines, personal contact and looking together for the best solutions that go together with functionality.
