Commissioned by Felix Janssens and the Observatorium.
(Foundation for the arts. Developing Art projects in relation to urban planning and landscape.)
Proposal for a new website. In collaboration with Maarten Verweij.

Main function of the website is that of archive. The design moves around
a ‘simple’ but effective 3×3 grid in which all information can be obtained.
Important aspect is that the ‘photographed’ archive at the same time
functions as site-navigation. Certain objects like filmrol, script, photo and
scrapbook function as main theme headers.

Searching in this way for information becomes like a ‘unguided missile’; no idea
where you’ll end up. Unexpected confrontations.
