For ten years he has taught at the Faculty of Architecture at the LUCA school of Arts (KU Leuven). Together with Arnaud Hendrickx and Nel Janssens, he runs a studio in the Master of Architecture, exploring the fundamentals of the discipline and the potential of curating for knowledge production. As a researcher he is member in the RadMat Research Group. Together with Arnaud Hendrickx, he is involved in an OPAK funded project that focuses on the spatial affect in architecture and he is currently setting up a PhD on the same topic.
