We liked the idea that it would require some effort to enter. The effort not being that it is physically difficult to go through the door, but that it requires a bit of work in terms of contribution in a social way.
In this episode of our podcast NDSM X season 4, we talk to Giovanni Bellotti and Alessandra Covini. Together, they form Studio Ossidiana: a studio that works on the boundaries between architecture, design, and landscape. Their practice explores innovative approaches through buildings, materials, objects, and installations. Their recent architectural garden at NDSM, called NDSM Lusthof, investigates what a garden at NDSM can mean. This is because this garden can always be viewed, but only entered at specific times.
Listen to the last episode of NDSM X now! After this episode, we go into hibernation for a while to come up with new ideas. But don't worry! Next season, we'll be back with more stories about art in public outdoor spaces and events at the NDSM industrial site.
