TENT.TOON

Graphic design in collaboration with Ingrid Nijhoff.

TENT.TOON is a temporary and mobile event where meeting, interaction and connection are the main focus. We offer a place and a stage where everyone is welcome to share their thoughts and projects. On January 29, 2014 we were in the Werkspoor Kathedraal in Utrecht.
