Iwan Baan takes the viewer on a one-year photographic journey around the world--always on the lookout for ingenious homes in unexpected places and outstanding construction projects. A characteristic of his pictorial language is the engagement with the close relationship between humans and architecture, between social use and the various spatial situations.
