Since 2011 Visser and Ernsten co-curate the Atelier aan de Middendijk artist-in-residency in Usquert. This residency situated a classical Dutch polder in the rural north of the Netherlands has so far welcomed designers, artists and architects to work on projects directly related to the farm house and the surrounding landscape.

Visser and Ernsten have collaborated with designer Guido Marsille, Martine de Wit of Dus Architects, artist Jan van der Ploeg and journalist Marten Minkema. Please visit the atelier’s website for more information in Dutch.
