New Atelier!

Long time no blog! A lot has changed in the mean time. I've moved to a beautiful atelier-livingspace with my love in The Hague (a city near the sea). The surroundings and my atelier inspire me a lot, I've started a lot of new projects, soon more about that!

Iris van Herpen Exhibition

Some time ago I travelled all the way to the other side of the Netherlands (from Rotterdam to Groningen) to see the exhibition about Iris van Herpen, a dutch fashion designer I really admire, at the Groninger Museum. It was a really beautiful exhibition. It was amazing to see her dazzling pieces in real life. The only down point was that my camera after 10 minutes suddenly had no battery life anymore. But that became a good excuse to buy the beautiful book that was specially made for the exhibition. If you are in the opportunity to go to this exhibition, go! It's such a beautiful exhibition you won't regret it. More information about the exhibition check the site of the Groninger Museum. If you want to see more about this amazing fashion designer check the site of Iris van Herpen

Secret Gardens

This week I've been a busy bee perfecting my "Leaves Impression" collection for a new and improved Artshop and exhibition of the Centre of Art of Rotterdam. They exist for 30 years and celebrate this by having a wonderful exhibition called "de Geheime Tuin" which translates into "Secret Gardens". The very Exciting thing is that I will be featuring most of my "leaves Impression" Collection in their new and improved shop! If you are in Rotterdam and have time on the 5th of April around 17.30, come and join me for a drink at this amazing opening! Check their website for more details.

 

Nov'82 architects

Recently I am working on an exciting project that will be in shops soon! In the process of developing my product, I visited the two wonderful architects of NOV'82 architects in their studio. I must say they have one of the most interesting studio's I've ever seen! The Building is just two meters wide and has a lovely interior that perfectly suits their needs. I got really inspired by their way of working. Visit their site for info about their projects and vision. Later more about the project I visited them for so keep an eye on my blog!

Rigorous spring cleaning!

I love this time of year, new buds everywhere and the promise of green and lush surroundings, it all makes me more than happy. This is for me also the time to start new things! For example this blog, I thought it could do with a little more than some dusting off! I changed the lay-out and made it a bit more fancy. I thought it was time for a new look, so here is my blog with a new coat on. But don't be afraid, I'm still the same. When the radar was silent there where some quite interesting things happening, so soon some more interesting new things to catch up on!
