I have always been fascinated by the digitalization of our lives, and what physical architecture can learn from digital architecture and game space. This was a core concept of my graduation project, Home of Legends. I have now been able to apply this principle in real life, designing Team Liquid's Alienware Training Facility in Utrecht.

What I like most about architecture is that there are so many branches of knowledge involved, and I constantly need to improvise. As an architect, we can come up with fantastic ideas, and if we do our best, there is a chance to make a difference in the world around us.

In my free time, I play the violin in philharmonic orchestra Mozart.
