Ralph Brodrück (teacher/ researcher TU Eindhoven) and Jacco van der Linden were our guests on the last Monday of October. The decor was again, the culinary never dull, restaurant Huson.

Ralph focuses on phenomenology and Jacco is an independent architect in Amsterdam. Thinking by making and making by thinking are for both men an important attitude, the head and hands together design.

In a very cheerful atmosphere discussed a array of topics. The themes of education, technology, art and economics exchanged rapidly. Knowledge of all these issues and the ability to switch between these subjects was impressive.

In many subjects specializing was appointed this evening as the T-Man. I had never heard of it. Ralf and Jacco themselves are two good examples.


Daan Bakker (Daf-architecten), Jeroen de Willigen (DeZwarteHond), Jasper de Haan (architect) and I invite each month a number of colleagues to eat, drink and discuss about our profession, the city of Rotterdam and related matters.
