Project ''Codename''

Martijn Straatman answered the question "How would you imagine an unknown place in the universe if you would be able to forget everything you know so far?" with the collection; '' Codename ''. A series of objects from Studio Tinus by Martijn Straatman, which embodies Martijn's world of imagination concerning this question.
