VPRO ongesigneerd

© Sylvain Tegroeg. Radio makers Tjitske Mussche and Laura Stek explored the design of the world around us and found fascinating stories.

Even behind the gray lantern pole on the corner there is a grand theory. After the success of Season 1 in 2015, with stories about among others the A2 motorway, street signs and the traffic light figure, a second series of VPRO Ongesigneerd was made. With the story behind the design of the Lower House, the asylum seekers centre, the office, the zoo, the cemetery and more.

In this episode, Herman Hertzberger talks about the Centraal Beheer office building and the history and future of offices (Dutch only).
