Urban designer Henk Hartzema and architect Tom Frantzen were our guests on the last Monday of August. Both have a cheerful attitude on their profession and are not influenced by any pessimism or cynicism. If necessary they self-initiate and organize projects. Besides designer they work in some projects as intermediate or developer. I wonder what roles they have in the future to fulfil.

We again eat at Huson . They rebuilt the restaurant and they had another menu?! About the quality of both interventions we doubt very much. It was lovely sitting outside.

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.
