Het Huis van Betekenis initiated this beautiful documentary project portraying different residents of Overvecht, a neighbourhood in Utrecht.
The outcome: a book compiling the stories of eight residents portrayed by eight different illustrators and comics makers. The stories are also published online on Drawing the Times. Buy the (Dutch) book here!
