In the summer of 2010 the city of Eindhoven asked La Bolleur to make something fun happen at the city centre, which made the team feel like clowns at a kids party. So clowns they decided to be, upscaling balloon animals to monstrous proportions, making them almost too big to handle. Creating the balloons turned out to be just as much fun as the end result itself.

Their aim to create a pleasant and cheerful world through creativity, is applied in both commissioned projects and autonomous works.
