Threshold of powers2024/2025
Commissioned by the
Rijksbouwmeester Atelier
In collaboration with Martina Germaná, urban designer at PosadMaxwan
What is the relationship between governmental buildings and public space around them?
Threshold of Powers is a hands-on photo essay that explores this question in the context of The Hague.
Captured from a 4-meter-high vantage point, the photos combine the human standpoint with a broader spatial perspective, offering a deeper understanding of the dynamics at play.
The research combines walking as a tool for spontaneous observation with a structured framework based on a specific route, running west to east from Den Haag Centraal.
The area is central and operational, porous yet secured. A dictionary of symbols helps in recognizing recurring patterns, both architectural and related to spatial use.
What stories do these spaces tell you? Can we imagine a more meaningful and reciprocal relationship between architecture and the open spaces around it?
