Superuse Studios (www.superuse-studios.com) is an agency that uses the existing environment as a starting point for their designs. They see the development of a building as one of the valuable results of a circular process: as a phase in the cycle of design and redesign, use and reuse. NachtLab is the existing incubator for creative talent in the electronic music business. High-profile parties and festivals are also organized here. Q-dance, the Dutch organizer of dance events such as Defqon.1 Festival, will soon establish its office in the NachtLab and has indicated that the renovation and furnishing should be carried out with as many recycled materials as possible. As the architectural contractor and interior builder of this project, this has been an exciting challenge for us. After all, construction and furnishing materials had to be harvested, including from Oogstkaart.nl, but other sources were also addressed by us. Here, for example, we have made cabinet conversions and partitions from leftover materials from the metal industry. We have also reused materials that are unnecessary for other clients and usable materials from our own and extensive storage. Finally, we also reprocessed existing materials, still present in the building. Our experience and flexibility mean that we succeed time and time again in realising new applications with existing materials. Issos has rightly fulfilled the function of “spider in the web” in this project. This project is entirely in line with our vision of future-oriented construction and furnishing, where maintaining existing value is key.
