YORIK’S COFFEE CORNER
This is our little café littéraire, a place dedicated to fine humour, delicate
literary debate, talks of the finest quality, and plain gross stupid jokes.
Aside from that, I also intend to put here interesting news from time to time.
Be welcome and feel at home. Have a coffee and drop us a line or two. All languages
are highly welcome, especially the most exotic ones (nederlands, bij voorbeeld...).

Multi-use occupation
A small (not so small actually, it's more or less half a million m²) project I've been working on these days... Unfortunately, as usual, my idea didn't interest people much, and the final drawings ended up as you can see below. Anyway, here they are for your viewing pleasure...
Open Mall shopping project - the files
This is a shopping mall project we made recently. All the composition was made by hand sketching and directly in 3D. We received from the client a basic layout with the gross areas of shops, offices and parking, and mounted the project on top of it. Since it is a first idea that the client wanted in order to "win" the project, we then focued on producing images that would convey the general "feel" of the project, instead of solving each and every detail, but that's hopefully for a next phase.
The final images are in the next post, and for who is even more interested, the blend file is available here...

Rodoshopping
An older shopping project we sketched in 2008 that I wanted to repost... It never went further than this very preliminary stage...

Frei Caneca competition project
This is our proposal for the Frei Caneca street reurbanization competition in São Paulo. The project was made with Maíra, Sander and Angelica. Given the extreme diversity of people, uses and social contexts of the Frei Caneca, we choosed not to make a project, which would dictate its rules over very different people and situations, and would make the street "beg" for the project execution to the authorities.
Instead, we designed a bottom-up system where everyone can propose, rate and execute small "micro-projects". No masterplan, no fundraising, no approval, no architect. If everybody does his part, wonderful. If only one does, the street has already gained improvement.
You don't make a street work better because you change the pavement and the trashbins... It has almost no importance at all. A street is made of people who live there and people who use the street, and what makes a street a nice street is the intricate relationship between all of them. for who is interested in the subject, read the fantastic book of Jane Jacobs, "The Death and Life of Great American Cities". She said (in 1961) many, many things that apply perfectly to São Paulo (and many other cities around the world)...
