Words from the company

"DP6 architecture undertakes design projects for public utility buildings, housing, urban planning, and interior design.

The architecture of DP6 stands out by its strong bonds with the landscape and the environment, and by the use of natural, contrasting materials. Our projects are given form through a process of associative design and an intensive interaction process between client, user, and consultants.

Reflection

We see ourselves as reflective architects. This means that we analyse the design brief to discover the essence of the client's requirements. As we reinterpret the brief, the client and/or user are closely involved in the process, the interaction with our client and/or the user leading to new ideas and concepts.

Situation

Much of a design is determined by parts of the landscape or its urban setting. We value such elements as landscape structures, trees, water, contours, and urban patterns very highly. The result is a building specifically designed for its environment.

Innovation

The strength of DP6 architecture studio lies in coming up with smart solutions to complex design puzzles. Sometimes this will result in innovative uses for modern techniques and materials, and sometimes old and proven techniques are put to new use.

Tangibility

Our aim in architecture is to create a tangible materialisation of a building, which is why we like to use contrasting materials; rough and smooth, large and small, natural and artificial. It is important to achieve a conscious composition of the right materials. The alternating use of robust and refined details is intended to stimulate the senses in order to strengthen the effect of a building."
