Art Applied – Petra Blaisse & Inside Outside Studio: A 30-Year Retrospective in Interior, Exhibition & Landscape Design

A comprehensive retrospective on the work of Petra Blaisse and her studio Inside Outside, spanning over 30 years of innovation in landscape, interior, and exhibition design. Known for fluid, flexible environments shaped by textiles, light, and natural elements, the studio has realized projects from large-scale public parks to intimate architectural interventions.

This 896-page volume showcases highlights such as the Kunsthal Rotterdam, Taipei Performing Arts Center, Biblioteca degli Alberi in Milan, and LocHal Library in Tilburg. It explores both built and conceptual work, focusing on the studio’s unique visual language and collaborative process—including its long-standing relationship with OMA.

With essays, project documentation, design drawings, photography, and reflections by Petra Blaisse and her team, the book presents an evolving conversation between architecture and nature. Contributions by Rem Koolhaas, Penelope Curtis, and others expand on the studio's influence and approach.
