NEON TOWER (2010)

 

A commissioned project for the historic, flood escape tower in Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht. In collaboration with poet K. Schippers the tower displayed the following words in blue-neon lettering “Alles bedelt om betekenis. Deze toren staat hier voor jou alleen”. Which translates in English to: “Everything begs for meaning. This tower stands here only for you”!

An example of a site-specific type design that reflects the forms of its architectural environment.
