De Bouw is a fantastic yearly festival in Rotterdam that invites anyone and everyone to build whatever they want in the center of the city for a week in July.
Entrance is free. Materials are free; scrap wood and parts are donated to the event. Space is free; claim any plot of land on the festival grounds and build away.
This year, Bruno Setola, Tiemen Visser, and I collaborated to build an entirely improvised playground with the materials we found on-site.
My experience at De Bouw is one of tapping into the pure joy of creativity and play; and that's what I really care about at the end of the day.
I'm a design-thinker fascinated by human experience, change, and how we'll live in the future.
