In may 2008 we went to the former Yugoslavia for 3 months to do our project 'tourisme'. We went to search for interesting neighbourhoods to react on social phenomena. We called these reactions 'neighbourhood products'. In total we made 3 neighbourhood products, and did a 4th project in Amsterdam. Our book 'tourisme in 12 parts' however, shows more than just these 4 projects. We devided the book in 12 chapters, each with their own subject. A chapter on the people we've met, the media attention we got, the traveling we did, our personal experiences, comments from other designers, quote's and facts, a thank-you list, a theoretical part, and a chapter for each project we did. Because there is no beginning and no ending in our book we mixed up the chapters before the book was bound, resulting in numerous different books, each with a different cover and different order. This is to emphasise that there is no chronological order in our story nor is one subject more important over the other.
