Fontein Noorderplantsoen
Most fountains look a bit forlorn when they aren’t spraying water. With this fountain, there’s always something to see – even when the water’s turned off.

And that was precisely the intention when artist Bas Lugthart was commissioned to create his design. In his design, Lugthart uses not only the blue tube as a material, but also water and even the wind and gravity. Without water, the viewer sees the outline of a face. As soon as the fountain sprays, the figure becomes complete: the arc formed by the water creates a slightly different hairstyle with every gust of wind.
