Practitioners Interview Series | Marlon Jonkers
Marlon Jonkers works as Head of Design at Moos. From 2021, she was involved in the founding of Moos and has since set up a team of eight talented architects to work together on Moos’ mission. Moos believes that everyone has the right to a nice home. If it were up to us, we would solve both the housing shortage and the climate challenge with one stone.
Moos is an integral company, more than just an architectural firm. Moos designs and does so together with our partner ecosystem, Our family. Moos has its own factory and is responsible for realization, also does maintenance and has a take-back guarantee. Our building system is fully demountable – whether your house is there for 50 or 5 years. This makes Moos unique because it has managed to set up the entire framework around circular construction. According to Moos, this is the way to actually build circularly on a large scale. We do this for the people, Our crowd, all kinds of residents of our homes, streets, neighborhoods – and the world. If your foundation is good, you are more solid in life, Moos believes.
Moos has developed a versatile circular modular construction system to quickly build high-quality permanent homes. The first 30 homes are now happily occupied and Moos is in full swing building and preparing the next 300 homes. After which many more will soon follow until everyone is provided with a fine home!
