LOADS
LOADS is a self-integrated and financed project by Studio Claudy Jongstra. The goal is to stimulate specific
agricultural projects – such as the biodynamic cultivation of dye plants – and the development of educational and
social projects. The studio works together with a variety of professionals to retain and pass on knowledge: from
traditional crafts to manufacturing processes and from recipes to natural materials, textures and techniques. The
doors are open to everyone who wants to learn to live holistically: students, designers, farmers, scientists and
companies. LOADS has the entire manufacturing chain in-house, which created a closed cycle. From LOADS,
Claudy Jongstra initiates masterclasses and events, master-apprentice programmes, new collaborations and an
artist-in-residency.
