NORTHERN SUN | Noorderzon
Marking the location of the knight’s estate “Huis te Vleuten” under the railway line between Utrecht and Rotterdam.
Beneath all the new developments lie the remains of what has disappeared, and this design aims to make that absence visible.
When the everyday things around us become visible in the light of the “southern sun”…
…this design contrasts that with a NORTHERN SUN;
“The Noorderzon is a source that illuminates hidden memories and thus brings to the surface shadows of vanished objects, reflections of buried traces and echoes of forgotten stories”.
