CIRCULAIR This cycle of Experimental Concrete invetigates the circulair potential of concrete elements. The assignemtn was to develop concrete eproducts that could be easily reused with a minimum of mechanical (destructive) interventions. 2020 concept, coordination, design, moderation, production, publication designers Henri van Bennekom, Brigitta Boon, Bart Goldhoorn, Iris van Gorkum, Patricia Knaap, Marina van der Kooi, Rosemiek van der Linden, Cornelia Lough, Nina van Schie, Quirine van Thiel, Eveline Vinkenborg & Cas van der Zanden concrete experts & participating industry Kees Blankers - Dycore, Marcia Bodt - Luc4Me, Rino Bodt - Riboton, Bas van den Broek - Dycore, Taco van den Broek - Betonhuis Constructief Prefab, Renaud Clermont - Hoco Beton, Ellen van Genechten - Byldis, Robert Rouhof - Westo Prefab Beton Systemen, Cindy Vissering - Betonhuis Cement/TEKTONIEK & Thies van der Wal - VBI moderators Siebe Bakker - bureaubakker, Ifke Brunings - Ateliers & Dré Kampfraath - Creative Projects Experimenteel Beton 2003 - 2022 2023 / DutchOverview of 20 years Experimenteel BetoneditorSiebe Bakkergraphic design: Siebe Bakker & Fatih Cebeci Backflap (NL)EXPERIMENTEEL BETON beoogt een inspirerende uitwisseling van ideeën, ambities en expertises tussen ontwerpers en producenten.

E-Bench Research project based on a student prototype developed in a MAKING course at Delft University of Technology. As part of the SeRaMCo research track at the university into secondary raw materials in concretes this development investigates the difference in heating and cooling of concrete and aluminum. The temperature difference is captured through peltiers elements and transformed into electrical power to drive led-lighting and smart phone charging. 2020 - 2021 coordination, production initiative Delft University of Technology research & production Siebe Bakker, Henri van Bennekom, Luis Castro Heredia & Tai Wei Kan support Geelen Beton & SeRaMCo
FORM-WORKS The ninth edition of the Concrete Design Competition hosted the theme 'FORM-WORKS'. It ran in Belgium, Germany, the Netherlands and Ireland. Coordinating country Ireland was host of the workshop for Laureates, planned in Dublin in August 2020. Due to the global Covid pandemic, the workshop was first postponed to August 2021, and later changed from an in-person hands-on experience into a remote digital one. Participants worked in international groups, designing their proposdals. Those were produced by a small team in Delft with various digital fabrication techniques. In October 2021 the whole group was able to finaly meet in Dublin for a weekend in which the results could be seen, touched, and debated. 2019 - 2021 concept, coordination, production, tutoring Ninth Concrete Design Competition on FORM-WORKSOne of concrete’s most defining properties is its change from a fluid state into a rigid one during the process of curing. The liquid concrete is poured in a mould that can hold almost any shape, thus presenting the other main characteristic of concrete: it can take almost any form and texture. Traditionally these two properties are interdependent and over past times refined, developed and taken advantage of for architectural expression as well as for […]
Nature Inclusive This cycle of Experimental Concrete addresses the potential of concrete and concrete structures to facilitate nature inclusive places. DP6 Architectuurstudio had the design lead, together with precast producers a series of prototypes were created to be discussed and to be catalysts for new ideas and products. 2019 - 2020 concept, coordination, design, moderation, production, publication designers Jimmy van der Aa, Edson da Costa, Gaelle Le Coz, Dick de Gunst, Richelle de Jong, Alexander Kröbacher, Maria Paz & Chris de Weijer - DP6 Architectuurstudio concrete experts & participating industry Taco van den Broek - Betonhuis Constructief Prefab, Ellen van Genechten - Byldis, Alejandro Pietro - TU Delft Robert Rouhof - Westo prefab Beton Systemen, Joost Velthorst - HCI Betoniondustrie, Cindy Vissering - Betonhuis Cement/TEKTONIEK & Dennis de Witte moderators Siebe Bakker - bureaubakker Experimenteel Beton 2003 - 2022 2023 / DutchOverview of 20 years Experimenteel Beton editorSiebe Bakker graphic design:Siebe Bakker & Fatih Cebeci Backflap (NL)EXPERIMENTEEL BETON beoogt een inspirerende uitwisseling van ideeën, ambities en expertises tussen ontwerpers en producenten.
