LABland
LABland is een collectief van drie scenografen: Juul Dekker, Sofie Doeland en Roos Matla. Samen maken zij (theatrale) installaties op locatie, die ontstaan vanuit beeld. Ze zoeken steeds naar plekken die onontdekt, vergeten zijn of overbodig zijn geraakt. Het collectief doet ingrepen in deze bestaande vorm: kleedt deze uit, of pakt deze juist in.
LABland verzorgt al sinds de eerste editie de locatievormgeving van het festival.
O4
Bureau O4 ontwerpt en bouwt gebruiksvriendelijke websites op maat voor uiteenlopende bedrijven en organisaties, zoals die van SLAA.nl, Abrahamkef.nl en Brainwashfestival.nl
