Johan Neerman (born May 24, 1959) is a Belgian-architect, industrial designer and systems thinker. His work focuses on appropriate technology, earthquake-free buildings, naval architecture, arts and cultural values and concepts, and systems thinking.
Neerman was born in 1959 in Kortrijk, Belgium. He comes from an architectural family as his father Philippe Neerman was also a Belgian industrial designer.[1] He studied architecture at the Institut Supérieur d'Architecture Victor Hortal in Brussels from 1980 to 1985. During schooling, he did a thesis on applied systems theory with Ergonomist Paul Tahon. From 1985 through 1986, he worked at the Kiyonori Kikutake office in Tokyo and later joined the Belgian Army prior to moving to the United States.[2]
After studying in the United States, Johan Neerman worked with IDPO Philippe Neerman on numerous public transport systems and architectural projects. Neerman was appointed Professor at the Academy of Fine Arts in Minsk, Belarus in 2000 and has lectured on applied systems thinking in numerous universities. In 1999, he founded Neerman Consulting, a consulting business that he ran until 2006. Neerman is a member of numerous professional organizations including the Brussels Town Planning Federation (FBU), the Scientific committee of ISD Valenciennes, the UDB, FIA, and BBCBC.
Neerman has worked on many notable projects throughout his career including designing earthquake-free buildings, transportation systems and naval architecture. In 1995 Neerman worked on the renovation and refurbishment of Château de Pierrefitte and all additional buildings. His next project was the Municipality of Poil, which involved the setting up of a restoration and transformation project for the municipality's buildings. He created a scale-model project, with production of the presentation documents.
From 1995 to 1998, he worked on upgrading the Brussels Metro 5th generation vehicles. He directed the partnership with Breda-Firema for the creation of the double-decker coaches (M6 types) for the SNCB competition and also participated in the RATP competition for the MF 2000. He also participated in the Barelona concept and ultimately took out a patent for that design.[3]
Neerman has worked on numerous naval designs including two separate projects with German-Naval architect Herward Oehlmann. In 2000, Neerman designed a low-draft ferry boat for Royal Desnhip in Denmark. The original concept was to build a ferry boat to look like a private yacht. The boat was designed with four engines and a hull that was directly derived from Swedish military techniques by using sandwish polyester. The finished ferry was 45 metres long, high speed and able to carry up to 366 passengers.[4]
