Really fun to flip through. And I admire all the work that went into preparing the collection to be showcased in such a high quality / consistent way.

These were nice as well: https://belowthesurface.amsterdam/en/rokin

Couldn’t tell if they are actually presented like that in the stations.

They are presented like that, in between two escalators, but the escalators move too fast and you're standing just a bit too far away to see details

Interesting, but a bit of a shame. It’s the kind of display you want to stand and gaze at.

Ah I don't understand the website. What am I meant to be looking at?

This is definitely a good example of how not to build a website.

Flagged because the link is broken; it links to an "oops error" page.

EDIT: you have to allow 3rd party Javascript. Welcome to 2018 the year where simple content sites require scripting. I guess that this is progress?

Also, there is no disambiguation between what looks exactly like a "nice" 404 page, and a javascript error page.

I don't know why this guy is being downvoted. Websites should be able to work without 3rd party Javascript.

Because it's one thing to complain about this (I hate it too), but flagging the submission for it is taking it too far

They’re being downvoted because HN spends most of its time writing that JavaScript.

So do I, I make half of my living writing Javascript code. Only my sites work when you visit them; you don't have to allow script from random 3rd party domains for them to work.

If you're making a content site then it should work without requiring Javascript. Or at least tell the user that they need to enable scripting, not that a random error has occurred.

The code that actually displays the content on the linked site is not third party - they're loading it from their own domain.

Also they do tell the user they need to enable scripting, or at least that's what Google Translate tells me "Oeps, je hebt JavaScript nodig voor deze website" means.
