His work stands out in scope and ambition. Together with his brother Erik who brings in a Philosophy degree from Harvard they focus on strategic interventions. The practice Rietveld landscape continues to challenge conventional concepts and demonstrates an unbroken spirit of optimism that reminds one of the SUPERDUTCH days.
