The designers of Atelier NL and Maarten Kolk operate as biologists, archeologists and ethnologists during their design process. Invited by Jurgen Bey and Rianne Makkink, they spent a year in residence at a farm in the Dutch Noordoostpolder. They closely investigated the specific vegetation, historic roots and local culture, to create designs that are strongly rooted in this specific area.</p> http://artbabble.org/video/boijmans/atelier-nl-design-noordoostpolder-holland#comments Atelier NL Ceramics European Design Gardens Maarten Kolk Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen http://artbabble.org/sites/default/files/bvideos/53/534669c7b345bc76/poster-image-09.jpg 534669c7b345bc76 Wed, 18 Nov 2009 10:34:55 +0000 Boijmans.educatie 5509 at http://artbabble.org
