The official residence of the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands has undergone extensive renovations. The interior and furnishings have been re-imagined, curated exclusively with products and art from leading contemporary Dutch designers.
When it comes to Dutch product design, our ongoing series in the DESIGN category,A Conversation Between Hiroshi Yanagimachi and Norihiko Terayamadelves into the subject. Dutch design is renowned for its meticulous pursuit of usability in everyday items and its strong emphasis on environmental consciousness. Indeed, Dutch design has a devoted following.
During this special public opening, various modern furniture pieces by renowned Dutch designers are displayed within the classic ambiance of the official residence, creating a unique atmosphere.
We highly recommend visiting the official residence, transformed into a showcase of Dutch design.
