Dutch designer &amp; architect, Robert van Middendorp discusses his project to build a community hall made from ‘hand me down’ materials. Located in a business park on the outskirts of Zwolle, a city in the northeast of the Netherlands, Robert will share his knowledge and frustrations at pushing forward an ambition to change the way we build. He’s joined by Chris Stewart, director at Collective Architecture who will share his insights into new building within Scotland. Join us for a lively &amp; timely debate that explores challenges &amp; ambitions. Robert van Middendorp graduated from ArtEZ Hogeschool voor de kunsten in Zwolle in Architecture. Following an internship in architect's office, Robert realised he also wanted to work with his hands &amp; design &amp; make furniture &amp; ceramics so he founded his own building &amp; making practice, Atelier van Middendorp (AvM). He is currently working on a project to design &amp; build a community centre made entirely of 'hand me down' materials. Chris Stewart is an architect with Collective Architecture. He’s currently running a programme with Zero Waste Scotland, in conjunction with the Royal Institute of Architects in Scotland (RIAS) &amp; Resource Futures, mentoring SME construction industry companies on the introduction of the circular economy into their work. He is chair of RIAS Sustainability Working Group / former chair and current Director of the Scottish Ecological Design Association (SEDA) and sustainability convenor of the Glasgow institute of Architects (GIA).Design in our Times is supported by the Dutch Embassy in the UK.
