ir. Bart Dessens (1991) has worked at atelier PRO since 2017, initially as a designer and since 2019 as architect and technical project leader. Based on his interests in building, technology and aesthetics, he started studying HTS Architecture in 2008. He then obtained his master's at TU Delft, where he specialised in sustainability and transforming buildings.

These are important themes, where designing for the place and the user are key. Each project presents a new challenge for Bart, bringing together past, present and future at all scales. Collaboration, research and fun creates a design that is woven into the context from concept to detailing in an innovative and sustainable way.

Bart is experienced in the entire building process - from the client's request to the elaboration of the design.  Both the technical and aesthetic sides of design issues appeal to him. He enjoys working on new construction - as well as transformation projects, as long as sustainability and innovation are the main focal points. He is always looking for ways to translate the concept into beautiful detailing, with innovative materials and smart building solutions. Bart also enjoys working on projects that contribute both architecturally and socially to the diversity and attractiveness of their surroundings.

Within atelier PRO, we see Bart as a valuable addition to the team, partly because he is well informed about new developments in the field of sustainable construction; but his open, curious personality is also of great value.
