Architects Neutelings Riedijk design sculptural buildings with a powerful urban presence, often with striking facades as a result of well thought-out designs. Although they frequently cooperate with visual artists Neutelings Riedijk do not consider themselves to be artistic. One of their most ingenious projects is The Netherlands Institute for Image and Sound. In this gigantic archive almost one million hours of Dutch radio and television footage is preserved. Part of this collection is presented in the accompanying museum. And scenes from famous TV shows are incorporated in its colourful glass façade, designed by artist Jaap Drupsteen. Neutelings Riedijk hold an ambiguous position regarding their Dutch heritage. Although innovation is not a goal in itself, the results of their design process is often very surprising. www.neutelings-riedijk.com CREDITS Commissioning editor Submarine: Geert van de Wetering Producer: Olivia Sophie van Leeuwen Research: Kirsten Hannema Director: Tomas Kaan Camera: Hans Bouma Sound: Wouter Veldhuis Editor/Colour Correction: Maurik de Ridder Music/Sound Design: Jesse Koolhaas Produced by Submarine, Femke Wolting & Bruno Felix www.submarine.nl Commissioned by DutchDFA www.dutchdfa.com Like Dutch Profiles on Facebook www.facebook.com/dutchprofiles
