I started my career as a traditional architect working for well-known offices like OMA, KDa, and NRa. While working I became more and more interested in the social life of cities. In 2007 I started, together with my partner, our own office: HUNC. Now we invent, develop, design, and execute projects to make cities and the life within them irresistible.

The Flying Grass Carpet (HUNC/Studio IDEddy)
Concept:
A traveling public park that shows the potential of public space.
People can use it to meet, play, lounge, relax, cuddle, picnic, and everything you can imagine when people are enjoying themselves.
Design:
It is made from artificial grass and designed to look like a giant Persian rug.
For the original design, we used classical Persian motifs and converted them to make them more contemporary. For the custom-designed Carpet we use iconic elements of the city it will be made for.
Implementation:
Since 2008 we have executed different Carpets in more than 25 locations like:
Berlin, Rotterdam, Aachen, Madrid, Santa Cruz, Shenzhen, Istanbul, Shanghai, Howell, Eindhoven, Amsterdam, Budapest, Pecs ….....
And we are always on the look out for new destinations.
