I dare say HP used to make some decent stuff. I've had that laptop since 2006 when I started my first business. It's survived countless flights and data centre visits. It even helped keep the BBC's phones running during the 2010 general election (monitoring the servers).

Absolutely rock solid.

Now it's helping me make music :)

Heidelberg: Was kommt da jetzt rein?

Ich habe gesehen das an Pavillion neben dem Polizeipavillion auf dem Bismarckplatz gewerkelt wird. Was kommt den da rein? Sinnvoll wäre z. B. ein Wärmeraum, ein kleines Cafe oder so. Nur daran glaube ich nicht, wir sind in Heidelberg.

This is the former freight depot in Brussels. It was constructed in 1902 and recently renovated. Twelve wooden pavilions were integrated into the building and today the complex is used as a commercial, office and exhibition space. The pavilions are based on a modular system and can be adapted or fully removed without damaging the historic hall.

The entire complex is now energy-neutral. This is achieved through new roof insulation, a large solar array and geothermal heating. Furthermore the wooden structures and the indoor greenery create a really comforting and generous atmosphere. Especially the trees nicely separate the busier main corridor with markets and exhibitions from the quieter side corridors with the offices.

This project is a great example of how we can combine modern applications with historic industrial structures and a good model for other conversion projects.
