About Making Space
Nelleke Nelis, owner of Making Space. I’m a building engineer who switches between the construction world and the world of the residential consumer. I have long-term expertise to inform, involve and convince residents (groups) at any time in the customer journey.
With my building and housing background I can "translate" information, I have insight into the wishes of residents and how you can connect them to a usually not so desired energy-saving plan. My mission: You cannot live in energy savings, but living as a starting point can tempt residents to take energy-saving measures.
