(Un)intended Design(Un)intended Design

This year, instead of a standard building tour, Sven Jansse shows us around the architecture while introducing us to the fringes of the Museum Park. Whether forgotten or deliberately concealed, created by accident or (once) deliberately designed, these fringes offer a surprising perspective on urban life.

On both days there is a guided tour every hour between 12 noon and 5pm. The tours at 12 noon and 4pm are in English. The tours take place entirely outside. If you want to visit the building of Het Nieuwe Instituut, or have a cup of coffee in Het Nieuwe Café, you must first register online because of the tightened coronavirus measures. This can also be done on the spot using a QR code.

Sven Jansse studied architecture at Eindhoven University of Technology and KTH Stockholm. He has worked for various architecture firms including OMA, KAAN Architecten and Powerhouse Company. He teaches at the Maastricht Academy of Architecture and in 2016 founded his own bureau, Office for Image and Space, which works on projects at the intersection of art, architecture and photography. Sven Jansse works together with Het Nieuwe Instituut on various educational projects.
