3. Curriculum Vitae
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Joris Smits, I was born in Amsterdam in 1968 and
I live in Delft with my wife and two children. Over the past eighteen years I have worked as
an architect, first at ‘Cie Architects’ and since 1997 as one of the leading architects at Royal
Haskoning Architects in Amsterdam. As an architect, my career has been strongly influenced by
my other expertise; civil engineering, and more precisely, structural design.
From 1987 until 1994 I studied at the Technical University in Delft where I combined the studies
of Civil Engineering and Architecture. I graduated in both in 1994 and thus became an architect
as well as a civil engineer. I believe that it is my understanding of the way that structures work,
the way that materials behave and my knowledge of the integral building process that has
profoundly defined me as an architect.
In the field I have been widely recognized as an architect-engineer due to the design of a wide
range of bridges and other structural works. With my projects I have won prizes in Zaanstad,
Assen, Leidschenveen, Amsterdam, Cambridge, Sneek, Bedum, Heerhugowaard and Dubai. Sus-
tainable building is my special interest, both in bridge design and in the design of buildings.
The Delft Design Composite Bridge, an ultra-lightweight modular bridge, is my latest accom-
plishment in that field.
The Genius Loci, the defining characteristic of the site, is the basis for all my designs. From this
I draw the inspiration that makes each project unique. All my designs are rational yet expres-
sive, and are defined by the interaction between man and his environment. In this manner
I have designed over sixty of the finest bridges and buildings, half of which have now been
constructed, a feat that I’m particularly proud of.
I see it as my mission to bridge the gap that so often exists between architects, engineers and
clients. After all, wasn’t it Vitruvius, the most famous architect from antiquity, who taught us
that a structure can only be of truly lasting value if it respects the balance between aesthet-
The Fly-over in Haarlem under construction
ics, structure and function? This adage is still very valid today and constitutes the crux to my
professional work.

Bridge was a quest for balance. We were looking for
a design that could connect past and present. The“
result fits perfectly into the historical setting of the
Zaanse Schans. Aesthetically speaking, this bridge is
a real gem.
