DOEPELSTRIJKERS IS AN INTERDISCIPLINARY DESIGN STUDIO FOR INTERIOR, ARCHITECTURE AND URBAN PROJECTS. We started the office in 2007, with the firm belief that by bringing together the disciplines of interior and architecture, we can make timeless buildings and spaces. Spaces that work in form and material, and that improve the health and wellbeing of the people that use them.In every project, no matter what scale, we explore how material and form relate to building techniques to make tailor made spaces. Both traditional as well as innovative techniques and materials are used, depending on the specific situation. We don't believe in generic design solutions, but rather search for ways that local culture, climate and building traditions can enrich a project.We aim to address relevant societal issues on different scales. Research into topics such as resource depletion, climate change, mass urbanization and changing society inform our design process. Climate and resource efficient design principles are used in conjunction with participative processes, to develop our circular and inclusive agenda.
