Alpine project space Somalgors74 (village of Tschlin, canton of Graubünden, Switzerland) developed an application that allows the experience of virtual sgraffito.
The project aims to give a new impuls to this visual tradition by what is going to be an ongoing series of proposals bij various artists and designers. After a visit to Tschlin and the area summer 2018, the first design was made by me spring 2019.

Flyways final design detail: the blue dots mark the space that should stay clear. This is crucial in order to avoid small ceramic splinters that make cutting and placement of the floor components extremely difficult.

Light of Science – Proposal for Visual Story Rijngouwelijn
In the public mind, ‘Het Groene Hart’, a green, open, agricultural space offering atractive views. Riding the test-train/tram from Gouda to Leiden, looking at all new business ‘parks’ and residential areas under construction, it becomes crystal clear things have changed a lot.
What we think is nature in the Netherlands has actually been moulded by human hands for centuries. This is not necessarily a bad thing. But with a population of almost 17 million people, whatever is left of green space, and it’s diversity of species, is under heavy pressure.
