New editorial member
In recent editions, Uri Gilad, Annuska Pronkhorst and Stephan Petermann have formed the editorial team of the Architecture in the Netherlands yearbook. For Uri, this was his fourth and final time. We say goodbye to one editorial member and welcome Thomas Bedaux.
Thomas Bedaux is an architect and director of Bedaux de Brouwer Architects, located in the former District Court in Tilburg, a building designed by his grandfather and founder of the firm, Jos Bedaux. Among other things, the firm realised the renovation and expansion of Museum Singer Laren, awarded BNA Best Building of the Year 2022. Bedaux de Brouwer creates modest, context-conscious architecture that stands the test of time. The firm designs with craftsmanship across scales, from city to house number, with intelligent structures, pure use of materials and thoughtful detailing. In 2022, the firm was named “Architect of the Year”. Thomas grew up with architecture and, partly due to his leadership role within a team of architects, developed a keen eye for appreciating architecture.
Stephan Petermann, co-founder of MANN, a research and creative design consultancy, focuses on strategy, concept development, and content creation in real estate, food and agriculture, and technology sectors. Having been a longstanding collaborator of Rem Koolhaas since 2006, he supported him in research, strategy, editing, and exhibitions. From 2010 to 2019, Stephan served as an associate at OMA’s think tank, AMO. He is also the author of the nai010 publication Back to the Office, editor-in-chief of VOLUME, and a guest professor at the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing.
Annuska Pronkhorst, an architectural historian and partner at Crimson Historians & Urbanists, contributes her expertise to various urban planning and architecture projects, merging historical research with project development. Additionally, she co-founded the multidisciplinary postgraduate program ‘Independent School for the City’ in Rotterdam. In 2018, she joined the Amsterdam Spatial Quality Committee/Committee 3, subsequently becoming the chair of the Monument Committee of the CRK in 2019. She also serves on the Supervisory Board of Kunst Institute Melly and the Program Board of Arcam.
