Jaap has been exploring new prototype developments in his 2.5m cube pavilion which is being tested on the beautiful lake edge in Friesland
inspired by henry david thoreau's hut at walden pond. Translated as a tool for our time tuned to planet earth. A minimum prototype that adjusts to its environment in the sense that a tree does, ie autonomous energy, info, water+food, integrated structure, environmental systems with louvre skins that respond via sensors to temperature, wind, moisture and light. '..THIS FRAME SO SLIGHTLY CLAD, WAS A SORT OF CRYSTALLISATION AROUND ME..' Thoreau.

Background
How could we dwell on planet earth? What if dwelling was just a minimal enabling tool. A device in-tune with our fragile planet!
click-raft is an economic fabrication architecture – inspired by Thoreau's hut at Walden Pond, the minimalist citroen TPV, and lego. click-leaf architecture is a playful open system which utilizes the qualities of plywood click-leaf’s to form a lattice of structure/networks assembled from standard panels which can be quickly ‘clicked’ together to form floor, wall, and roof click-rafts in different configurations. Structure, cladding, plumbing, energy, water systems, storage and furniture are integrated within the weave of the plywood structure. Alternative configurations respond to a wide variety of different site specific conditions – engaging imagination, and exploration.
