A "Pronksculptuur" (sculpture) is a portable object that depicts your successes, with the goal of "literally taking a moment to reflect on them."
A Pronksculptuur is a portable object that immediately draws attention within a space. Just like a bust, this eye-catcher is designed to impress. It highlights a specific powerful element of your brand story—such as core values, outstanding employees, successful projects, or partnerships—all designed in your corporate style. Think of a fold-out display featuring the “Employee of the Month” who is being recognized.
The strength lies in its flexibility: a Pronksculptuur enhances the atmosphere without requiring major changes to the space. You can work with a series of sculptures that can be expanded and adapted, just like a rotating exhibition in a museum. A set of Pronksculpturen are ideal for placement in multiple locations throughout the building, including smaller spaces or at different locations.
A good example of a set of Pronksculpturen are the modular cubes created by the architecture and engineering firm VDNDP, which feature images of award-winning projects combined with glowing quotes from partners in combination with VDNDP’s brand values. Of course, all of this is presented in the firm’s distinctive branding—which we also developed.
Flexibility is a hallmark of a Pronksculptuur. That’s why we chose lightweight cardboard cubes for VDNDP that can be stacked in various ways. The simple production process makes it easy to make quick adjustments: If a new project has been added to the list, you can simply add a cube. If a prize has been added to an existing cube, you can either reprint one side or replace the cube. And, not unimportantly, each branch has its own set of cubes.
An ornamental sculpture like these cubes has the added benefit that assembling it can serve as a valuable team-building activity. Together, you work to bring the projects to life in the space.

EXAMPLE
We're proud of this
The impact of exercise on mental and physical health captured in a single image
Sports not only help people stay in good physical shape, but also contribute to better mental well-being. To raise awareness of this among a wider audience, Special Olympics and the Museum of the Mind have joined forces.
They interviewed and photographed nine ambassadors. This gives you a glimpse of their outer selves: what they look like and how they present themselves to the world. The ambassadors were then portrayed by artists who work at Multimedia Digitale Kunst, Grafisch Atelier Noord, and the Outsider Art Gallery in Amsterdam—all initiatives of the Cordaan healthcare organization. The artworks, on the other hand, explore and depict their inner worlds.
We’ve been asked to use this material to create a traveling exhibition that can be flexibly displayed at various locations throughout the Netherlands. It’s important that nothing needs to be attached to the floor or walls and that everything can be set up and taken down quickly.
We want the portrait (external) and the artwork (internal) to be visible together at a glance, because they are inextricably linked. We translate this principle into a Pronksculptuur for each ambassador. A Pronksculptuur consists of three printed Plexiglas panels arranged one behind the other, featuring, respectively, a quote from the interview, a life-size photo, and the artistic interpretation. This creates a layered image of what a person looks like and how they are perceived and portrayed on the inside.
“Everyone is a winner”—that’s why all participants are presented on equal footing, each on their own pedestal; this makes them look like (trophy) cups themselves.
The bases are stable yet easy to lift and transport, taking into account the maximum weight specified by occupational safety regulations. You can easily assemble and disassemble them by sliding the removable Plexiglas panels into the base. Plus, everything fits into a single delivery van.
