Swimming pool Sonsbeek, Breda

Year:	2000
Location:	Breda
Architect:	Izhar Cohen
Client:	City Council Breda
Project type:	art & design
Product:	glazed tiles

The illustrator Izhar Cohen was asked by the City Council of Breda for the swimming complex Sonsbeek to design a tile table of 14 meters long and 2 more high. His design 'Dutch Atlantis' was transferred to the tiles by our people via a stenciling technique. This meant, among other things, that a template had to be cut per color and by hand. The tile picture did not stand alone and had to be included in the existing tile work, which meant that all the colors for the work had to be developed by Koninklijke Tichelaar.
