A series of mirrors by Dutch designer Tjimke de Boer- that are balancing on the fine lines between art and design. Without losing the original function of the mirror, the relation between the product and its surrounding is wholly redefined. The magic colour palette, which appears to be a puddle on the mirror, immerses reflections in a play of lustrous colours. The low viscosity of the epoxy gives the pigments free play. The process of pouring the colours over the surface of the mirror has created the illusion of these colours fusing in slow motion. The composition only allows limited direction and serendipity is the defining element in creation of the final result.

Femke van Gemert re-uses textiles in abstract works by focussing on a single colour. All her creations reveal the beauty of imperfection and deterioration over time. Her compositions radiate a mood laden with traces of the textiles used. The work Femke creates is always very tangible and evokes emotions by the way material and colour is shown. For her commissioned work clients can donate discarded textiles, enhancing their attachment with the resulting artwork. After a long career in the fashion industry she decided to start creating using only recycled and leftover fabric and textile produced by our increasingly consumerist society. In this way she is re-evaluating the meaning of waste in the design process.

The collection Vanishing Point of Sandra Turina, was developed in cooperation with wood specialist Ruben van der Scheer. Inspired by some splits that fell off Ruben’s work bench, they were fascinated by their effect on perspective. Due to special cutting angles which Ruben used for some other products of his, the 3D impression of these wooden blocks was enhanced.
Finished with a coloured resin layer these wooden forms take the starring role.

Marleen Kurvers developed a effective technique to tighten wool or synthetic wires on a frame. The result is a series of textile panels with bright graphic linings and colours that were combined with each other. These panels are a very simple way to reduce noise in a big space and to divide it efficiently. And off course usable on both sides.
Materials: wood, merino, cotton and synthetic fibers.

The rhythm of light
A day begins, the sun rises.
The sun starts her daily rhythm, she rises and she sets,
This is a never-ending story with a beginning and an end, it repeats itself every day.
The light we use in our houses is very static, almost like it’s something that’s frozen, But light is not something that is static, it lives.
Light is movement, it has its own rhythm.
I designed a lamp with its own rhythm. The user decides the rhythm of the lamp by moving the lamp up and down, the layers mingle, the light get’s diffuse and the layers turn into a game of colors….
The shapes of all four ‘cut and serve’ Grid Planks originate from Daphna Laurens’ grid studies, one of many methods for the design studio to devise form and shape. Varying in size and grid, all planks are designed to be clear-cut functional and aesthetically alluring, without adding unneeded materials or ‘handy’ accessories. “Cut on the smooth, serve on the grid side”. Use the plank like this and it will persist in being neat and tidy for a very long time. Oiling the beech wooden plank once in a while, using grape seed or alternative thin non-smelling oil extends its durable use. A ‘how to treat’ specification comes with every Grid Plank.
