de Appel invited designer Bert Kramer for a long-term research trajectory into finding a safe way to get the archive mobile and to keep the archive as one body: the story of de Appel. From 2018 up until 2021, the archivist and designer worked together on how to safely store the complete archive in a sea container to be able to travel and to connect with other archives, collections and people all over the world. The archive would change from a waiting body into a flexible, proactive, travelling collection that changes location in and outside the building of de Appel.
