Sixteen Trees of Delft (2023)

Published by RADIUS, Center of Art and Ecology

This guide to Delft is for people who want to encounter the city in unexpected and exciting ways, using trees as the starting point for exploration. 

Trees are an integral part of the city of Delft: from century-old living monuments, to recently planted saplings. How these trees exist in and interact with the urban environment is often overlooked – they should be thought of as architectural objects in their own right, with the power to make us reconsider our fundamental experience and understanding of the city.

A launch event at RADIUS included talks by Niekolaas Johannes Lekkerkerk, Founding-Director RADIUS, Tako Postma, Stadsbouwmeester Delft and Diny Tubbing, Stadsecoloog Delft.
