proved the power of a logo in public space‘. basically he modified his standard vans into courier van’s:
‘I transformed my first van into a courier van, by copying the fleet marking of TNT logistics & mail.
using the van was a performance on an almost daily basis, which started when I went on the road:
I greet my ‘colleagues’, and I parked the car as real couriers do. although I never payed any parking fee
and didn’t had a parking licence, I never got fined for doing so.‘ FH
hofman later carried out the same exercise with another van transforming it into a DHL van.
