Vijzelstraat has become a little more interesting since yesterday we unveiled our winter animation!
If you come from the direction of de Munt and you make your way towards de Pijp, you’ll be greeted by our festive mix of winter words. Come and see for yourself! This animation will be running until December 18.

Martí's infamous Techno-tapas © Martî Guixé

a visit to the small-scale paperfair Grafisch papier hier in Amsterdam’s Pakhuis De Zwijger keeps you up-to-date about the latest papertrends and is a great source of inspiration. last saturday it was time again for the yearly event. mannschaft payed it a visit.

this year’s motto was ‘kookkunst – over eten en ontwerpen’ with a very tasty presentation of Martí Guixé – Catalonya’s creative design export hit. Guixé, who has among others designed interiors for Spanish shoe brand Camper, presented the amused audience his hands-free lollipop, the Olive atomic snack – three-dimensional tapas, in the shape of atomic models – and the Techno-tapas, “a system of eatable tapas that enable you to snack while working with your computer, during parties, aircraft travelling or design openings”. our presentation favorite was the Gat fog party –artificial indoor fog made of gin and tonic as performed in 2004 in Casco Projects, Utrecht. cheers, Martí, you’re delicious!

more specifically dedicated to printed matter is the work of Tony Le Duc and Nej De Doncker. Le Duc as photographer and Doncker as designer have been cooperating on a number of cookbooks (among others on an anniversary book for Kitchen Aid) and have lately realized a number of beautifully designed ‘bookazines’ called Kookze!

with pockets full of exciting paper samples (none of them edible) and a head full of inspiration we left the pakhuis to finally fill our empty stomachs.

see you next year!

our new intern Kay Hooijmans started working with us in early november. Kay is in his third year studying communication and multimedia design at Rotterdam University. he recently moved from Utrecht to Rotterdam where he’s living together with his twin brother.

in his free time, you can find kay boxing at the gym or shopping for some filippa-k or stone island clothing. on saturdays Kay works at a nice butcher shop in rotterdam, the finest meat in town – as he says!

his sources of inspiration:
Edward Hopper

Dali
Atmosphere
Radiohead
Christopher Hewitt

welcome, Kay, it’s great to have you working with us!

Paul Barbera dropped by to shoot our studio for his “Where They Create” project. We had the good fortune to meet with him twice, since Andreas was on holiday in San Francisco during his first visit. Discover our studio from Paul’s point of view here.
