CMO / Partner in Station 1

Small actions yield monumental results: Success undoubtedly resides in the intricacies.

Each and every project requires accuracy, even in the smallest parts. Whether it’s a feasibility study, planning events, or creating new attractions that captivate millions. The distinct signature of a The Visitor Experience project is always there.

The whole is greater than the sum of parts from stakeholders, partners, suppliers, and our team. Knowledge, skill, and a strong passion for our work are equally important elements.

Nice To Know

In 2014, Station 1 founded The Happiness Project, the world’s first permanent Body Worlds anatomical museum experience in Amsterdam. Station 1 has since sold its stake in this successful visitor attraction. In 2018, following three years of preparation, Peter and Daniëlle opened Body Worlds London in The London Pavilion at 1 Piccadilly Circus.

In a joint venture with the world-renowned Vincent van Gogh museum in Amsterdam, Peter led the development of the “Meet Vincent van Gogh Experience” as the project’s Executive Producer and Managing Director. This travelling, multidisciplinary experience immerses visitors in the complex and contradictory world of Vincent Van Gogh. Daniëlle directed the concept, design and branding for this breathtaking experience.
