Connected with the City

Fine art print in room

The citizen and the city. Many novels, philosophies, songs and poems have been written about this relation. From the daily perspective of city governance a myriad of stories about life in the city can to be told. The idea came up to express the canvas of the city as the 64 fields of the chess board. An eagle view, from above. There the living and the system world meet and form the fibre of society. The connected citizen finds its way.

This rectangle archival pigment print of the city canvas with Pantone^® Bright White (living world) Pantone^® Black 6c (system world) and Pantone^® Terra Cotta (citizen) is perfect for a modern, classic and reflective look in home and office interiors. It is a reminder on the wall, that being and staying connected is crucial.

System World Canvas

Fine art print in room

Philosopher Jürgen Habermas distinguishes the living world and the system world. In the living world people and teams live and communicate between equals, based on arguments and without power. It is the world where love and friendship are leading and daily life dominates. It is the white canvas on which we are born, walk, live and die.

In the system world the instrumental rationality is used and says or dictates what and who is necessary to achieve a goal or to carry out a task. It is the world of rules, regulations, procedures and guidelines. It is the black canvas, in fact the chess board, on which most decisions of public governance are made. In the background though we find the living world, not dominant but present.

This rectangle archival pigment print of the city canvas with Pantone^® Bright White and Pantone^® Black 6c is perfect for a modern, classic and reflective look in home and office interiors. It is a reminder on the wall, that the governance of our society is strongly dominated by this palette of black.

Living World Canvas

Fine art print in room

Philosopher Jürgen Habermas distinguishes the living world and the system world. In the first, people and teams live and communicate between equals, based on arguments and without power. It is the world where love and friendship are leading and daily life dominates. Here it is expressed as a white canvas, in fact the chess board on which we are born, walk, live and die.

In the system world the instrumental rationality is used and says or dictates what and who is necessary to achieve a goal or to carry out a task. It is the world of rules and regulations. It is the other world, represented as a black canvas, here in the background and not dominant.

This rectangle archival pigment print of the city canvas with Pantone^® Bright White and Pantone^® Black 6c in the background is perfect for a modern, classic and reflective look in home and office interiors. It is a reminder on the wall, that the playing field of life for all of us starts with a clean palette to live our dreams and give creativity and colour to the world.

Connected

In the old town of Hondarribia, Spain, this fine wiring pattern forms the infrastructure for connecting streets, houses and people. Quite a palette. Straight forward and essential.

Two Neighbours

In the old center of Verona we came along this palette of two neighbours. Number 8 and number 10. It is almost a painting where materials tell their stories.
