By Ethel Baraona Pohl — Filed under: Politics ,Urban Planning , Cuba, tourism, zerOgroup

In reaction to US President-elect Barack Obama’s Sunday’s declaration on CBS ’60 minutes’ on 16.11.2008 (his first sit-down interview since winning the November 4 presidential election) where he has confirmed his intention to close Guantanamo’s Detention Center, zerOgroup made this proposal, called ‘I LOVE GITMO’ to upgrade the American enclave in Cuba into a mass tourism destination.

The ‘I LOVE GITMO’ proposal is one of the works that have been elaborated at the ‘Con Embargo Sin Embargo’ workshop organized by Supersudaca, supported by the Prins Claus Fund, and held at the IaaC Barcelona (Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalunya) in September 2008.

Heineken The City / Tjep

Nov 2008

By Ethel Baraona Pohl — Filed under: Institutional Architecture ,Interiors , Glass, The Netherlands

Size: 250 m2
Design: Tjep
Project team: Frank Tjepkema, Janneke Hooymans, Tina Stieger, Leonie Janssen
Production: Hypsos
Location: Amsterdam

What do you do when Heineken asks you to design their first shop? Do you place furniture and displays into a given space? At Tjep, they thought it would be rather more appropriate to pour furniture into the six monumental buildings located in the heart of Amsterdam, as if we were filling a cold fresh glass of X-tra cold Heineken.
