We hebben al een tijd geen De Ruyter bijeenkomst kunnen organiseren en dat gaat waarschijnlijk ook nog wel even duren. Maar, hopelijk kunnen we wel op een andere manier mensen bij elkaar brengen. Zeker nu.
De coronacrisis hakt er vooral in de creatieve sector flink in, sommigen zijn letterlijk hun podium kwijt. Het Koning Willem Fonds, de organisatie die ondersteuning verleent aan Nederlanders in het Verenigd Koninkrijk die hulp nodig hebben, heeft nu een speciaal Coronafonds geopend om mensen tegemoet te komen.
Mocht je behoefte hebben aan wat extra steun om deze periode door te komen (of wil je een financiële bijdrage doen om andere Nederlanders te helpen), kijk even bij het KWF of het Coronafonds iets voor je kan betekenen. https://www.koningwillemfonds.org.uk/activities.html
For this De Ruyter event, on Wednesday 3 July, during the London Festival of Architecture, we are joined by architects Edward Marchand and Sabine Hogenhout, structural engineer Luca Frasca and management consultant Daphne Thissen.
This chaired panel discussion hosted by De Ruyter Netwerk looks at boundaries—how they are changing or even disappearing—in the interfaces between engineering and architecture in the construction industry today.
The event will open with a brief presentation by architect Edward Marchand, followed by a panel discussion with panelists from both architecture and engineering professions, chaired by Daphne Thissen of Thissen Consulting. A key area of the discussion will be to focus on pressing issues and new evolutions in the way that architects and engineers collaborate on large-scale building projects.
Edward Marchand Edward is an Associate Director at Bennetts Associates. He studied and worked in Belgium, the Netherlands and France. He trained as a structural engineer and architect, acquiring design skills which embrace multi-disciplinary working. Ed has worked on a number of exciting projects at Bennetts Associates, developing design ideas and concepts within project and competition teams. Projects include the highly sustainable Hampshire County Council headquarters, Crossrail surface stations in West London and the development of an exemplar headquarters office building in the Green Belt outside London. He was the project architect for the conversion of historic buildings forming the Midland Goods Shed and Handyside Canopies in King’s Cross, and led the brief-setting exercise and the design development of the Guardian’s new civic space. Ed is now leading the design of a new sports hall on site Q2 in King’s Cross.
Sabine Hogenhout Sabine is an Associate at Hutchinson & Partners. She has worked as an architect at several award-winning practices in the UK, The Netherlands, Germany and China, working in residential, healthcare, educational, cultural and commercial sectors as well as the design of public space and urban planning. Sabine studied at the Faculty of Architecture of the University of Technology in Eindhoven where she received an MSc in Architectural Design in 2006. She moved to London in 2009 to specialise in Environmental Design and Engineering at The Bartlett (University College London). She has a special interest in environmental urban design and the impact of specific urban microclimates on the architecture and life in cities.
Luca Frasca Luca is a Senior Associate structural engineer at Alan Baxter Ltd with a broad experience in refurbishment and new construction projects. Since joining Alan Baxter, Luca has overseen projects at all stages of construction. Luca is currently working on the redevelopment of the Whitechapel Bell Foundry, comprising the restoration of several listed buildings and a new extension at the rear of the site. In Swindon, he is responsible for the restoration of the listed Grade II Victorian Carriage Works. Luca’s previous work includes the refurbishment of a Victorian school in north London, the refurbishment and conversion of a listed Grade I building in the City of London, the extension of Coventry’s Herbert museum and the refurbishment of listed Grade I/ II Government offices in central London.

De Ruyter is deze keer niet met een spreker maar weer eens tijdens de V&A Late. Zoals de V&A het zelf noemt “The original contemporary late night event”. Een hele reeks van performances, films, installaties, DJ’s, bars en nog veel meer. Deze keer staat V&A Late in het teken van de fotografie en hoe we het gebruiken om ons leven vast te leggen maar ook te delen.
We beginnen in de bar bij de Grand Entrance en gaan daarna rond door het event.
