A unique style that you see in buildings and in the layout of neighbourhoods of this period (1920 - 1940). The project was begun by Victor Freijser out of love for this architectural period. Though he sadly died before completing the project Victor did see the design for the book, and it was eventually published through the efforts of Marcel Teunissen, Rainer Bullhorst, and the publisher De Nieuwe Haagsche. We developed the basic structure of the book: the cover, endpapers, the layout of the introductory images, the titlepages, and the grid for the layout. As in the style of the architecture, the base for the design is sober, but with details. In this way the design connects with the essence of the architectural style without being a replica. client .
