Services

We are a full service creative studio that creates meaningful spaces and moments, taking our clients on a journey that we call applied imagination.

We are dedicated to creating spaces that not only serve functional needs but also foster a sense of community, minimise environmental impact, and ensure economic viability. Through this holistic approach we create solutions for the reality of today and the future of tomorrow.

Design

With a sincere curiosity for people and their surroundings, we design for the human scale and from the inside outward. Our work goes beyond functionality and aesthetics by constantly challenging dogmas, through applied imagination.

We design from a four-dimensional perspective. Time becomes an important driver for design, blending functionalities in the same space during day and night. By blending functionalities and fostering social cohesion between stakeholders, we optimize space utilisation. This blended approach operates in the interspace between markets and shapes the sharing economy, as a serious solution for the increasing lack of space.

Rather than mere design, clients want us to create impactful solutions. It’s our drive to achieve a harmonious balance between social, environmental and economic return.

Build

Maintaining our joint journey and serve as a one-stop-shop, we provide a complete design & build solution for projects from start to delivery. Enabling fast turnarounds by managing the execution in a smooth process, we remain focused on the end quality. We are precise and structured while always remaining true to our mentality.

We build the designs that we create, to do more with less, and to keep control over the final result. Turnkey projects span from architecture, installation, and interior to FF&E. Our markets include hotels, offices and museums, with clients ranging from building owners to tenants.

Our approach

  • Focusing on quality instead of profit maximisation, our design team is an integrated part of our construction team. Together they constantly protect the quality of materials and artistry, both in the engineering and executional phases.
  • Building with the creative and agile mindset of designers in one single team instead of a traditional chain of services is what makes us a true full-service Design & Build company. Throughout the entire process, we bear joint responsibility for the final result.
  • Doing heavy work with a light-hearted attitude, our projects should be fun for everyone involved.

Activate

Our passion lies in creating environments where people come together. We are so committed about this, that we continue our works after construction works have finished, helping our clients bringing life to their spaces. By using our in-house developed tools, we activate spaces in line with our client’s ambitions and requirements.

Our approach

  • By activating spaces from a blended-use perspective, various people and functionalities are brought together in the same space during day and night, creating meaningful spaces and moments. Our own studio DB55 is a prime example.
  • Our blended-use coworking booking platform that has made the Dutch national news with over 2.000 bookings per day.
  • Matchmaking company Usespace, that connects social & cultural organisations with office buildings and hotels to host their social events.
