Open Office Day
OD205
We are a design agency for urban planning and landscape. We design living environments where people feel at home and where flora and fauna flourish. In doing so, we take into account current themes such as the housing challenge, climate change, loss of biodiversity and the necessary sustainability. We succeed because we believe in a better future. We find the springboard to achieve this in the existing situation and the wishes and requirements of all parties involved. We use our ideals and our experience to see how far we can go together. Especially in active participation processes.
Saturday the 25th of June we invite you to meet the team of OD205. We will show you what projects we are currently working on. Feel free to pass by! Several designers are present to show you around.
Workshop
In a short workshop about participation you will become acquainted with our method by applying it to a future spatial development: the Multiplein between Westzeedijk and Schiehaven. You can see it directly from our workspace. Our goal for the workshop: to show that participation offers added value to every development and above all can be very valuable and fun.
The workshop wil be held at:
11:00-12:00h (max.10 participants)
14:00-15:00h (max.10 participants)
Please sign up in advance via aanmelden@od205.nl

Speakers
Ralf is director-owner of OD205. He studied in Munich, Cologne and Delft and then gained 15 years of experience in renowned agencies in the Netherlands. In 2007, he joined OD205 to become the owner of our agency four years later. Social impact by design' is his motto. Ralf has experience at all scale levels and with all types of design assignments. "I try to make a social difference in every project. In doing so, I often focus my energy on future-oriented changes that require a solid dose of strategy."
The relationship between spatial frameworks, climate change and human experience fascinates Judit and is an important motive in her work. Judit always seeks out the interaction between the spatial and social domain as much as possible. We have the opportunity, and with it the obligation, to give everyone, including the 'not so average' target groups, a place in spatial developments. She is strong in vision and concept formation and well able to guard the vision and carry it through to all scale levels and products.
