Interior and product designer Tjimkje de Boer is the brain behind designstudio Knapontwerp. Knapontwerp draws its inspiration from daily scenery and objects. Captured in photography, Tjimkje dives into detailed observation and poetic analysis of ordinary moments and taking the best of old crafts and traditional production methods, new ideas take hold and lead to the development of products.
Picturesque Mirrors by Tjimkje de Boer
In such manner, a slushy paddle turns intoPicturesque Mirrors, balancing on the verge of art and design as the reflective functionality is complemented by an interaction of lustrous colours. While across it, in collaboration with Anne Marie Twigge, the studio constructs a Converso Simplex, a minimalistic cube of a base and a loose interlocking element. This object tributes the physical posture in (public) speaking in various adjustable structures of formal and informal presentations. Offering the speaker all of the settings to present: seater, presenter, activator, highriser and converser.
