Lex van Dop
About Lex
“Not mine, but Gandhi’s: Only he may demolish who can build something better.”
Position: Project manager
In 2002 I started Objectum as an independent entrepreneur. In addition to my work as director, I am still actively involved in projects. Due to my long experience with complex processes and large projects, the focus of my work is in the field of plan developments and redevelopment of urban areas.
What motivates me
I once read that our civilization rests on mediocrity. Because our building process is influenced by so many factors, there is always the danger that the end result will indeed be mediocre. What motivates me is to achieve the maximum result with all those involved in the construction process. Whether that’s the client, architect, consultant, builder and government. The end result should never be mediocre, but should always be better than it was before.
Rik Pronk
About Rik
“Collaborating with skilled people on the building assignments of tomorrow is what challenges me.”
Position: Project manager
Since 2003 I have been working as a project manager and housing consultant at Objectum. Within Objectum I am mainly involved in housing advice, process management and plan development. With my experience as an architect, I am also actively involved in the management. In addition to the substantive work, I am a partner of Objectum.
What motivates me
Construction projects move in a constant field of tension. From the agreements and responsibilities that have been laid down to the limited space there is to make changes. This requires both an accurate and flexible approach. It is precisely this field of tension that challenges me every day. My approach is characterized by unorthodox solutions and the initiation of special collaborations.

Casper Vos
About Casper
“As a construction manager, you operate as a director of the construction process, taking into account all the interests of the parties involved.”
Position: Project manager
I have been working at Objectum as a project manager since June 2017. I have years of experience with an integral building process from the architect’s side. Becauseofthe increasing complexity in construction, our workrequire connection of different disciplines. That’s why I made the step to integrated construction management. At Objectum I do feasibility studies and project management, housing management and i keep supervision of construction quality.
What motivates me
As a construction manager you operate as a director of the building process . In the interests of all parties, I like to connect different disciplines without losing sight of the client’s wishes. I particularly enjoy devising real estate strategies and the design of the process itself, which ultimately leads to the desired end goal for all parties involved.

Since the summer of 2020 I have been working as a project manager at Objectum. With varied projects and different types of clients, no day is the same. In my work I try to find balance between the wishes of clients, people and nature and I look for solutions that are both sustainable and profitable.
