Our project CRANE-IT was the inspiration for this unique green ceiling at the new SLA Utrechtsestraat in Amsterdam, which Micaela designed in collaboration with Nicemakers.

Goed nieuws. Sla, de Amsterdamse, biologische saladebar-keten, heeft een nieuwe vestiging aan de Utrechtsestraat 10 geopend. Locatie nummer vier, wat inhoudt dat het nu nóg een beetje makkelijker is om gezond(er) te eten in Amsterdam.

FiCreativo was asked by KSAT - International Platform for artists - to work on a space design for the launch exhibition of their #7 entitled "A Rebellion with no Cause" publication. The event was hosted by POST-OFFICE, a public platform for cultural interaction and working space in Rotterdam.
The installation is a translation of how KSAT and POST-OFFICE could merge into a indoor-outdoor design. KSAT logo straight geometrical cube invades the location and relates with it in a completely unexpected way.
The part of the structure standing outside is regular and clean, but when 3D giant cube hits the facade and enters the space it gets distorted to the point that its original shape is no longer recognizable, while the only memory of it is traced with white tape on the floor. Angles and sides are deformed to touch the walls and the material used becomes rough and sketchy in relation with the location style.
The wooden beams divide the space into unconventional sections, which are used for exhibition and gathering purposes during the event.

Brick Biotope is a set of brick typologies designed as a natural living environment for birds. It addresses the disappearance of the House Sparrow in the Netherlands and the need for nature to reclaim the built environment. The design is contextualised in traditional red brick façades synonymous with traditional Dutch architecture.
The House Sparrow often finds shelter in wall cracks. Brick Biotope considers this natural phenomenon, creating a bird-friendly brick that can be applied to a standard brick wall. The design allows plants and wildlife to coexist with architecture, forming unexpected life patterns. In addition, incorporating Brick Biotope into walls creates an alternative reading to standard masonry wall construction.
The materials and fabrication process for Brick Biotope are motivated by the practice of using natural resources, such as sand and soil, to shape the built environment. Sand is traditionally used in sand-cast moulding techniques, however the project’s research explored the potential of utilising the malleability of the material. The sand, acting as a moulding agent, is poured together with plaster and removed by hand after solidification. The shapes form unique profiles defined by voids and layers of plaster, creating useful programmable shapes within a standard brick mould.
