EXHIBITION - Render 1
1 / 3

The exhibition at the Vitra Design Museum Gallery provides insight into Bas Princen’s ongoing examination of the relationship between architecture and image. The exhibition consists of large-scale photographs of built structures, supported by a single vertical element and standing out against an even, continuous curtain surface. The photographs, printed on Japanese rice paper so as to be perceived as actual material objects in themselves, explore what happens to the spatial and material qualities of architecture once a three-dimensional structure is translated into a flat photographic image. In this project, OFFICE and Bas Princen aim to encourage the viewer to form a new relationship with both the architecture and its image.
