Artgineering devises and implements strategies whose
effects extend beyond the built boundary. The firm establishes
a concept of architecture that tackles subjects that the
discipline traditionally does not deal with, such as the media,
marketing and mobility. We find solutions by a positive take
on problems and constraints. Our inspiration is the banality of
everyday life and we strongly believe that the re-interpretation
of reality is just as effective as physically changing it. The
aim is to integrate creativity and technology: art-gineering
Artgineering is an interdisciplinary office based in Rotterdam,
the collaboration of Stefan Bendiks (architect), Aglaée Degros
(urban planner).

The area of the Andreas hospital is a site with an unique
position just within the Amsterdam ring road: 8 minutes
to Schiphol by train and 12 minutes to the city center of
Amsterdam by tram. It is connected to the Lelylaan, one of
Amsterdam’s main traffic axis. In the north the area overlooks
the Rembrandt park and in the south the open water of the
Westlandgracht.
The commission was not only to design of a high-density
development of housing combined with amenities, offices
and atelier space, but to make the project a link between the
contrasting urban environments. The proposal interweaves
the existing water and green structure with the building
mass and makes the site a high quality green area; an oasis
accessible for the entire city.
The key for the future identity of the area is the proximity of
two contrasting environments that are of great relevance for
our contemporary urbanity:

The Belgian national road N4, in the vernacular ‘La Nationale
quatre’, links Brussels with Luxemburg. Ever since the
completion of the motorway E411 parallel to the national
road, the N4 has lost its initial function as major European
traffic axis.
Today ‘La Nationale quatre’ is an oversized infrastructural
element, along which a kaleidoscopic ad-hoc accumulation of
functions and services came naturally into being: a wonderful
informal world of one-family-houses, churches, castles,
disco’s, offices, snack bars, gas stations and warehouses.
The N4 integrates everything. The result is an architecture
in a spectacular, yet obvious, direct connection to a highway
profile.
The N4 settlement follows the organizational scheme of
the traditional Belgian ‘straatdorp’, evolving in a ribbon
development with a multitude of contemporary program,
triggered by the excess of infrastructure. A different kind
of city stretched out between the capital of Europe and
Luxemburg; a manifesto of Wallonia’s own urban identity.
The visual and programmatic analysis of the N4 shows the
potential of ‘La Nationale’ as an urban condition and aims to
initiate a discussion about the future of this forgotten piece
of infrastructure. On a long term basis the N4 might even
become the fourth city of Wallonia after Luik, Charlerois and
Namur: La vraie Nationale 4.

‘Triple profit’ is a strategy for the future development of
the ‘Bollenstreek’, a region southeast of Amsterdam, world
famous for the cultivation of tulip bulbs. Today it represents
one of the few agricultural areas that actually still are
profitable.
The commission was to redefine the relation between the
increasingly massive agricultural building volumes and the
beautiful open landscape. Instead of a conservation scenario,
that ultimately would limit the economic development of the
area, ‘Triple profit’ opts for a combined strategy of agriculture,
tourism and recycling. ‘Triple profit’ increases the profitability
of the landscape and actively creates new spatial qualities.
Triple Profit =
tulipfields +
tourisme +
recycling of contaminated ground
Driedubbele winst (XXI.) =

recycling vervuild grond
The history of this area characterized by the striving for
maximal profit: In the 18th century through the ‘double profit’
of selling out the sandy ground of the dunes for construction
and the cultivation of tulips on the remaining soil. In the 21st
century through the triple profit of tulips, tourism and the
recycling of polluted soil.
The project proposes to dig up the polluted mud from the
drainage canals and turn them into a tourist water network
for boot tours throughout the tulip fields. The polluted mud
gets recycled and generates a landscape of dynamic hills in
the open landscape with scenic viewpoints overlooking the
tulip fields.
These mud mounds cover clusters of large-scale agricultural
buildings and other tulip related industries. They optimize the

FILEkit© is a project about one of the most intense, yet
annoying experiences of today‘s mobility -the traffic jam.
FILEkit© interprets the tailback as a new kind of public
space.
There is - and there will always be - traffic jam in. Any
attempt to solve it with navigation systems, toll roads and
‘spitsstroken’ (special rush-hour lanes) has failed. As in the
future we will only spend more time in ‘file’ (the Dutch word
for traffic jam), we rather start enjoying ourselves and finally
uncover the contradicting beauty of being in traffic jam.
The FILEkit© is a collection of ‘must-have’-items for the
individual driver stuck in traffic: a water pistol, a bible,
a condom or a flower. In combination with each other
and in the context of the traffic jam they stimulate the
awareness of potential activities in traffic jams and enables
communication with fellow ‘File-Victims’.
The FILEkit© is being distributed on the road as a free
welcome pack by a team of ‘FILEangels’ on motorcycles. To
open the package is a first step towards rethinking one’s
attitude within the social and spatial condition of traffic jam.
The FILEkit© inspires the individual driver to go beyond the
physical and mental barriers of his or her own car. Being
stuck in a traffic jam becomes a social event.

Fileportrait is a contribution in the publication enrichment of
the travel time in the innovation agenda “Ways to the Future”
of Rijkswaterstaat, with questions about the ways travellers
could make their trips more comfortable and effective.
The project contains a visual analysis in form of a photoessay: inventories of the car’s content, the “objects trouvés”
in the car that report as physical witnesses about the use of
the journey time of the contemporary driver
The portrayed people are experts on (car)mobility from
different disciplines.
In the following interviews, they talk about their personal
journey time experiences.
The essay clears up with the prejudice that people see the
journey time as lost time and shows the car as an interactive
living- and working- space.

Route most driven: Woerden/Kamerik – Almere-Stad.
Daily traffic jam: when I start in time, in the morning at the A2 Breukelen- Vinkeveen,
sometimes until Abcoude (12,5 km), and in the evening A 27 Utrecht/De Meern
– Woerden (10 km)
Traffic jam hours per year: 60
Most annoying traffic jam: on my way to winter holiday, during friday night’s rushhour
before Christmas, snowed in on a highway somewhere in Germany. that traffic
jam really lasted, the motors where put out, rows with stopping cars in the dark,
the biggest parking place I’ve ever seen! The next morning, we heard news that
snowploughs have dug out snowed in cars. About noon, cars started riding again.
Nicest traffic jam: a traffic jam in the radio, that turned out not to be one. I headed
the traffic jam and had the chance to go home by normal speed.
Car content: works that I have to prepare, technical literature, writing pad, papers,
mobile phone, cleaning stuff for dashboard and front, and books in the summer as
preparation fro holidays.
Favourite activities in traffic jam: waiting, observing the kind of traffic jam, listen to
traffic jam news, calling home or work for letting them know, that I’m coming later
and also for having a nice little talk. Killing time, turning the radio up, working a
little bit, reading, catching something to eat or drink at the gas station or cleaning
up the dashboard again.
FileKit favourite: the bulb. I should plant it on the roadside where I slowly ride along
every day and hope to see my flower day by day!
Car content: reflection jacket, tape measure, boots, a quick umbrella, a rain jacket,
supersession RW, plate of the Rijkswaterstaat, phone, handheld computer, laptop, camera,
executive case, post-it and a pen for notes on the way, cd’s, a bottle of drinking water,
penknife, electric torch, chewing gum, sweets and a vitamin cookie when I’m hungry
during the traffic jam.
Favourite activities in the traffic jam: making up my mind, staying away from other cars,
thinking about solutions and taking notes of that. Putting the radio on (information) or
a cd (music). Making phone calls, giving informations or instructions, having important
phone calls on a parking place, quickly getting over unread e-mails and checking papers.
As an expert I see the traffic jam from a different point of view and I make pictures and
take notes.
FileKit favourite: it seems to be pretty useful for kids because they’re the first to be
annoyed.
Traffic jam ‘wannahave’: a mobility computer on the dashboard that is not only
navigationsystem but also can give you a lot of individual info about journey time
prognoses, alternative routes, available P+R places and alternative transport
combinations.
Traffic jam of the future: it’s not recognizable as such. The traffic jam is only in the
booking computer of your provider. The traffic is going to be programmed (journey
trips, ends, …) – that’s how the route, the beginning and the final journey time
are defined. Automatic vehicle escorting on the main roads. Here and there are still
organised traffic caches at access- and dosagepoints. (???)

Route most driven: IJlst - Deventer
File ‘wannahave’: Een verrekijker om te zien of het einde van de file al in zicht is en
een fototoestel om in de spits heel mooie luchten te fotograferen.
Daily traffic jam: once a week in the morning at Bilthoven and once a week at
Zaanstad, twice a week in the evening A10 west.
Traffic jam of the future: the traffic jam will probably not change a lot. People accept
the fact that they’re stuck again in the traffic jam the next day. They see apparently
more advantages in the traffic jam, than disadvantages. They will not do plentiful
other things in the car than they do right now. The attention must stay at the traffic
that’s going on. There’s potential danger in every deflection.
Traffic jam hours per year: 80

File-uren/ jaar: 40Traffic jam hours per year: 40
Most annoying traffic jam: a unbelievable hot traffic file at the A28 in the sunshine,
and one time after midnight at the A12 where I almost felt asleep.
Nicest traffic jam: an oldtimer traffic jam at the freeway close to Oudenrijn. I just
popped into a bunch of beautiful old cars.
Car content: blankets, food (banana), something to drink, radio, mobile phone, maps,
shopping bag, writing pad and on longer journeys a car-coffee-machine.
Most annoying traffic jam: I drove into a very long traffic jam while I tried to avoid
another one.
Nicest traffic jam: the one that wasn’t there afterwards – I suddenly got time for
myself.
Car content: Laptop, telephone, tea, bread, apple, radio, tennis racket.
Favourite traffic jam activities: listening to the radio, making phone calls, going over
things again, and preparing meetings. And for that, even the radio has to be turned
off.
FileKit favourite: the little flower, because it brings you happiness and joy, and calms
you down. It would be nice to put it on the sidemirror. With that, you invite other
drivers to react on it.
Traffic jam ‘wannahave’: virtual clutch attached to the man in front (following him
with low speed in a few meters distance).
Traffic jam of the future: shutdown, waiting quarter of an hour with the engine turned
off, in the meanwhile passing by of toll-inspectors.
Favourite traffic jam activities: “going-on”, having the time to think about a lot of
things, private stuff. Sometimes about severe and important things, sometimes
about things like shopping lists.

Traffic jam ‘wannahave’: a nice, fitting writing pad.
Daily traffic jam: just before the exit Barendrecht direction Den Haag (2 km), ring
Rotterdam direction Den Haag (3 km)
Traffic jam of the future: Everybody’s in the car, planning of an automatic ‘stopand-go’ system and a car-pc (computer, tv, and so on) that is in use when the car
switches into the stop-and-go status. The car becomes more and more office and
part of the home.

km), A28 Utrecht - Amersfoort (4-10 km), A1 Amersfoort - Barneveld (2 km).
Traffic jam hours per year: 150 - 200
Most annoying traffic jam: from Eindhoven to Oud-Beijerland. It was a very large
traffic jam because of heavy snow fall. I was stuck there for six hours. No mobile
phones yet, no food or drinks in the car and I had to go to the dentist – in short: a
disaster.
Nicest traffic jam: I don’t really know that kind of traffic jams, I honestly find it
always very irritating. Not that long ago, I was stuck in a strange traffic jam, with
old cars, flags and transparents. It seemed to be a commemoration march for
Pim Fortuijn. Funny traffic jams are always caused by flocks of goats or sheeps in
holidays.
Car content: always my mobile phone – speakers included, cd’s an apple, something
to eat/to drink and as a matter of course my bag with work in it, a map and a road
guide are essential for me as well.
Traffic jam hours per year: 160 in business travelling.
Favourite traffic jam activities: making phone calls and listen to music.
Most annoying traffic jam: being stuck in a tunnel – it’s a feeling of powerlessness, it’s
menacing. One on the A12 because of a serious accident. The way was blocked and you
can’t go out of that. On viewing distance,: chaos, a burning car, injured people that have
had to be rescued.
FileKit favourite: the water pistol. I like to irritate other people and with that, you can
easily aim at other cars and scare the people.
Nicest traffic jam: on a warm day. Everybody puts the engine off and comes out of the car.
You meet people you don’t know before and talk about private things as well as about how
to solve the traffic problems of today. It’s a very social behaviour. I got a business card from
someone that I later invited to a workshop.
www.artgineering.nl
Traffic jam ‘wannahave’: listening to my e-mails and replying them so that I don’t
have to do that at home.
Traffic jam of the future: I believe in automatic vehicle escorting, where you drive
directly to or from the highway, but for the longer distances you just follow them. In
that scenario with a constant speed, you can do other things perfectly and you can
work trough.

The reputation of the lightrail (Leiden-Gouda) is developed,
intensified and made visible via the creation of icons by
means of interactive art projects in the heads of users and
abutters.
First, an artist is chosen who works in an interactive and
analysing way and who takes the experienced environment of
people as a starting point.
The Blue Line is the result of the clarified process after the
experience of the target group and the function of the route
and after that a possible creation of icons.
The final consumer takes the centre stage!

The strict separation between fast traffic and program
is due to change. The national road N4 in Belgium is an
example of a main infrastructural axis with a unique direct
relation between buildings and road. The N4 serves as a
laboratory and source of inspiration for a new kind of regional
infrastructure: the ‘missing link’ between the highway
network and the secondary network.
In the Netherlands, the buildings alongside the main roads
are paradoxically enough the most difficult to access. As
a result of the policy to strictly separate through traffic
from program (the Dutch “duurzaam-veilig principe”),
business parks for example have no direct relation with the
infrastructure they are situated at.
The buildings are exposed to the nuisances caused by the
road, such as noise, pollution and security restrictions,
without being able to take full advantage of accessibility,
visibility and a clear address. The spatial result is an
inefficient ‘terrein vague’ between road and building that
remains unused.
The design research ‘N4 Profiles’ documented the various
infrastructural conditions along the N4 and distilled
archetypical profiles for the integration of infrastructure
within the built environment. Within a series of
interdisciplinary workshops the resulting typologies were
applied onto three locations in The Netherlands. The outcome
is visualized in 4 archetypical infrastructural models with an
improved relation between road and program.

B.O.B offers the best of both: it combines the modernistic
ideals of space, light and view with the contemporary longing
for living in nature; the reconciliation of urban life and ‘backto-nature’.
Every unit consists of two parts: a penthouse in the sky and
a cottage on the ground, allowing for a multitude of different
individual lifestyles.
The site is located along the A15 highway between the
northern fringe of a postwar housing area in Hoogvliet and the
Shell-territory in the harbor. B.O.B extends the eco-zone along
the highway up to the existing residential area.
Every cottage to be built creates a circle of ‘nature’ in this
in-between zone. Every inhabitant of B.O.B can adopt and
personalize her eco-sphere according to a catalogue of
environments: swamp or leafy trees, a pond or dry bushes,
etc. Within this sprawl of eco-spheres the non-planted
leftovers between the circles form sequences of clearings and
naturally become the access paths to the cottages.
The program consists of 50 residential-work premises with a
minimum of 120m2 residential area and working spaces of
various sizes. By splitting the requested floor area per unit in
two unequal parts a wide range of spatial and programmatic
combinations becomes possible.
The architecture of B.O.B is based on the provision of casco
spaces that can be furnished with a catalogue of possible

The proposal opts for an urbanism that starts with the
specificity of a neighborhood as a starting point for urban
renewal. In opposition to the standard strategy of large-scale
transformation projects, where the existing population is
expelled to attract a socio-economically stronger one, here the
identity and characteristics of the present Moslem population
are recognized and reinforced. This results in an original and
unexpected view on the future of the neighborhood. The area
is no longer perceived as a “ghetto”, but an optimistic place
where foreign traditions meet metropolitan lifestyle.”*
What do YOU want?
Referring critically to the Dutch ‚Poldermodel‘ an unauthorized
referendum is held about Kanaleneiland‘s future identity
and image. This manifestation is part of ‚Groupportraits for
Young Architects‘ 2002, in collaboration with Kanaal+‘, a
think-tank for the restructuring of the post-war housing area
Kanaleneiland. Based on the existing qualities and conditions
of the area three identities are distilled to choose from:
-Erotic socialism: inspired by the positive Cuban way of
dealing with shortcomings through improvisation and ad-hoc
interventions.
- Salamhitech: a synergy between the Muslim traditions of the
existing population and a metropolitan lifestyle.
- KanalenY-Land: the disneyfication of a postwar housing
area with controlled freedom and gated happiness.
The spatial consequences of this vision for Kanaleneiland are
worked out and visualized for four hotspots in the area. In
combination with positive media news they are displayed ‘on
site’ to the inhabitants.

The design assignment was the extension of a botanical
garden in Bolzano with a ‘garden for lovers’. Open areas
are cut into the rough vegetation of the existing forest. They
form oasis of calm and intimacy in the public park. The open
areas vary from heights and views of the typography of the
hill, because of that, the one circle forms a plateau that looks
over the valley, the other forms a cool grotto in the lap of the
mountain.
Accordingly to this spatial conditions, the open areas are
filled with different flowers and plants. They vary in colours,
smells, sounds and meanings. So, the blue forget-me-not
means eternal love, the red freesia stands for mystery and the
yellow calendula represents sorrow. The oasis of love change
with the seasons and form a seductive contrast with the
surrounding forest.

‘Nation de la Nationale 4’ explores the potential of infrastructure as a catalyst for collective identity. The N4 stickers in the
format of a nationality plate are distributed to the residents
and users of this specific national road in Belgium. The intervention aims to stimulate a bottom-up process of identification of the people with the N4 as a collective icon.
In a relatively young country without cohesive identity, divided
by two (officially three) national languages, fragmented into
regional, provincial and municipal administration nationality
fails to provide a collective sense of belonging. Instead, other
geographic and social entities become a catalyst of identification. In the case of the “Nation de la Nationale 4” this is a
piece of infrastructure.
The N4 is an oversized infrastructural element, along which
a multitude of contemporary program settles according to
the organizational scheme of the traditional Belgian ‘village
rue’. The result is a ribbon state of detached family houses,
churches, castles, disco’s, offices, snack bars, gas stations
and warehouses. Attracted by the excess of accessibility
a population of old and new residents appropriates their
territory up to the hard shoulder of the road. An anthem to an
informal identity.
