about story post Noord
Did you know that Overhoeks is the oldest part of Amsterdam-Noord? And that just behind Eye was the gallows field of Amsterdam? Storypaal Noord is an outdoor exhibition about the unknown history of Amsterdam-Noord that can be visited 24 hours a day. At 6 locations, the story posts mark important events or stories from history.
changing district
Storypaal Noord is a project of creative agency Zeppa In collaboration with Writer Bas Kok . From our studio on the former Shell site we see Noord rapidly changing. Noord was the district of craftsmanship and industry. Now it is a city district where the creative sector still finds space. With the story posts we show that the city district has gone through a lot of change over the centuries and that it has been invalidated again and again.
can be seen for a year
story post will be seen for a year. If it will be a success, we want to realize a permanent open-air exhibition about the history of Amsterdam-Noord. From Ruig Active area to creative renewal area. Noord has reason to be proud of her present and past!
with accompanying book
In addition to the content for the story posts, Bas wrote the accompanying book: gogme, >. This accessible book about Amsterdam is written from the Nordic perspective. This way you can dive even deeper into the stories.
