For an office building
in Amsterdam I designed an art work seven storeys high. It consists of
seven times three silk banners in the staircase, indicating the numbers
of the floors. Climbing the stairs the visitor sees a medley of colourful
shapes until, when you reach a landing or emerge from the lift, you see
complete numerals.
The work was executed in collaboration with the artist Nanda Laas, who
printed the elements of the numerals on the silk banners using a silkscreen
printing method.
