We were invited by the Van der Laan foundation to present a visual reflection and give a lecture during the first theme lab in the Jan de Jong house, in Schaijk.
Three designers explored the value of the work of Van der Laan and the Bossche School by reflecting on a current theme. What is the relevance of the work and the ideas for current designers?
The first Theme Lab ‘The In-Between Space’ took place in the Jan de Jong house in Schaik, restored by Vereniging Hendrick de Keyser. The three designers each interpret the in-between space in this exemplary Bossche School house from their own perspective. The presentation focuses on a visual reflection on the Jan de Jong house and the theme of the day.
