The artwork by Karel Appel from 1969 is minutually reconstructed tile by tile on the renovated high-rise of the Park Hoog Oostduin residential complex. The transformation of the former office complex in The Hague into a high-quality living environment is in the final phase. For the redevelopment, it was necessary to replace a low-rise wing containing restaurants, conference rooms and boardrooms with a detached apartment building on the same foundation. The mosaic of Karel Appel was commissioned by Shell for the facade of the management wing. Before the start of the demolition, the work tile was disassembled, documented and stored. With the same attention, it is now being relocated to the refurbished high-rise building.
