Juniper · Architecture + Engineering · Rotterdam

Buildings, measured twice.

Juniper is a studio of architects and structural engineers who draw, calculate and check every building in one room, from the first section to the last bolt.

Section drawing through Kade 14: four timber floors on a concrete core, a pitched roof and a basement plant room

04Practice4 disciplines

One studio, four disciplines.

Architects and engineers share one table, so the drawing and the calculation never disagree.

  • Architecture

    Housing, schools and workplaces from the first sketch to the last site visit, with the cost plan beside every drawing.

  • Structural engineering

    Timber, steel and concrete frames calculated in-house, so the structure is designed with the building, not after it.

  • Retrofit

    Surveys, load tests and new uses for old buildings. We keep what can stay and measure what has to go.

  • Interiors

    Fit-outs, joinery and lighting drawn to the millimetre, built with the same contractors we trust on site.
