The garden of the Van Abbe: PIET OUDOLF

Piet Oudolf (known for the High Line in New York) designed the front yard of the Van Abbemuseum: “I like to think of the garden as a living painting. All the different colours, shapes, lines and structures form a special whole in which there is plenty to discover.” Watch his mini-documentary about the garden of the museum here.
