Dutch photographer Iwan Baan is known primarily for images that narrate the life and interactions that occur within architecture. He has challenged a long-standing tradition of depicting buildings as isolated and static by representing people in architecture and showing the building’s environment, trying “to produce more of a story or a feel for a project” and “to communicate how people use the space”. Born in 1975, Iwan grew up outside Amsterdam, studied at the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague and worked in publishing and documentary photography in New York and Europe. He is one of the most widely published architectural photographers in the world.
