After months of hard work, SYMPOIESIS is actually After months of hard work, SYMPOIESIS is actually in the making! With this mockup panel, the construction works have started on our project for Floriade Expo 2022 and Almeres new urban district of Almere. Together with MVRDV and Alex Verhaest, we designed an enormous artwork for the central tower of the festival.⁠
⁠
The road to this result was not always easy and many stakeholders were involved in the realization of the façade. Everything falls into place as both artistic and production visions are incorporated in the mockup. ⁠
⁠
Now that the mockup has officially been approved, we are immensely proud of the result and can’t wait until the Floriade opens its doors in 2022!⁠

Each puzzle starts by laying the first piece.⁠
⁠
Siobhan checked out the mockup panel of Sympoiesis on the construction site of Flores in Almere. ⁠
⁠
The material and process used are quite unique, as each piece of the Sympoiesis-puzzle consists of two glass plates with the print in between. ⁠
⁠
We could have never realized this exceptional and technical production without the help (and mental support) of our partners Sorba, Michiel van Ieperen and Studio Online. This elaborate collaboration will be giving a magical feel to the façade, that’s for sure!⁠

Time for another exciting preview!⁠ ⁠ Our @sio Time for another exciting preview!⁠
⁠
Our @siobhanburger paid a visit to the construction site of Flores to check out the first mockup of SYMPOIESIS, the artwork we designed together with MVRDV and Alex Verhaest. ⁠
The artwork is made of glass panels to be fixed on the façade, bringing to life a gigantic flowery nature landscape.⁠
⁠
In case you forgot: SYMPOIESIS will cover the 40-meter-high façade of Flores, the central tower that is about to be overlooking the festival. Next to that, SYMPOIESIS turns the tower into an icon for Hortus; the new urban district of Almere.⁠

There is so much to see and experience at @jeugdth There is so much to see and experience at @jeugdtheaterhofplein!⁠

The canvas we've been working on includes a variety of textures and surfaces: from the carpets of the auditorium, entresol to the stairs and the theatre chairs.⁠
⁠
Some elements will be interpreted by the audience as soft and light, while others as hard and massive. In these contrasts lies a reference to the contrast between the robust materials and bombastic architecture of Maaskant on the one hand and the organic forms of Appel on the other.⁠

Corriette Schoenaerts has added some quirky surprise elements to the folding chairs. Eyes and ears in different colors convey the diversity of the city and the inclusiveness of the theater. Plus the message that the theater is a place where you keep ears and eyes alive!⁠

The walls and floors are covered with a design that evolves from a clear blue sky with snowy white clouds in the foyer to a dreamy starry sky in the theater auditorium.⁠

In this changing firmament, visitors come across huge, abstract elements that refer to rocks, molecules and other organic materials.⁠

Our creative approach reinforces the vision and mission of the theatre: verbeeld, verrijk, verwonder (imagine, enrich, amaze). This way, @JeugdtheaterHofplein responds to the contemporary perception of the young target group and also wants to amaze and inspire potential tenants.⁠

The choice of a dark, starry sky on the carpet in The choice of a dark, starry sky on the carpet in the auditorium stems from quite practical considerations, namely the technical requirements for light and acoustics. The same applies to the dark-colored walls, which are supposed to be light-absorbing.⁠

Last week, the outstanding @pim_top has captured the completed project @jeugdtheaterhofplein we did with Corriette Schoenaerts. As the sun was shining through the Karel Appel artwork in the facade, we saw the artwork come to full bloom.⁠

Unfortunately, the 35th anniversary of the theater could not be celebrated exuberantly, but is the theater ready to go for many more years, you ask? Oh yes, it is!⁠

Centrally located above the entrance of the buildi Centrally located above the entrance of the building, the colorful Karel Appel artwork undoubtedly contributes to the experience of the interior of the foyer, the staircase and the entresol. The abstract shapes and primary colors play a game with the light and thus also with the perception of the space.⁠
⁠
With our design, we keep this work of art in the center of attention while adding a contemporary interpretation of applied art.⁠

A visit to the theater starts as soon as you step A visit to the theater starts as soon as you step inside the building and enter a world of imagination. It goes without saying that, from the start, we wished to cherish the unique combination of art and architecture in the building that houses @jeugdtheaterhofplein⁠
⁠
Karel Appel's striking glass-in-concrete sculpture contrasts with the sleek lines of Maaskant's architecture. Whimsical shapes refer to the eyes, ears and mouths of children who find their way in the original school building.⁠
