Maite Maite

Hay ojos que miran, -hay ojos que sueñan,
hay ojos que llaman, -hay ojos que esperan,
hay ojos que ríen -risa placentera,
hay ojos que lloran -con llanto de pena,
unos hacia adentro -otros hacia fuera.
 Son como las flores -que cría la tierra
(...)
(Miguel de Unamuno,
Hay Ojos que Miran, Hay Ojos que Sueñan).

652. Provinciehuis, Hertogenbosch

Dear Hans,

The architect of the building for the Ontario Provincial
Government was H.A. Maaskant. This architect played
a major role in the reconstruction of the Netherlands. He
designed many important buildings such as the Hilton
Hotel in Amsterdam, the Euromast in Rotterdam or the
Scheveningen Pier.

Regards,

626. Johnson Europlant, Mijdrecht

Dear Frank,

Although Maaskant based his architecture on the principles
of De Stijl, later evolved to more expressionist forms, as
these seen in the Johnson Europlant.

Kind regards,
R
