film + design

for the second consecutive year the dutch design week will again be hosting the film and design festival in sunny eindhoven in late october, i’d never heard of it before but it looks interesting…

personal note:
i’m finally ‘back to mac’ a bit later than planned… due to a slightly unusual weekend involving missed ferryboats, towed cars, lots of fines and wasted money, lots of mud and even more rain, sprained ankles, hospitals, customs searches, alcohol, music and a lot of laughs… anyway back to business

flying books

wonderful ipad app that celebrates the real physical book and paradoxically puts the ipad to good use as an interactive alternative to the real book, well worth a look the app is too, i just had a play with it… (thanks to my wife for the tip x)

tensile strength and invisible seams

i had an inspiring morning talking with product designer and friendly fella ‘renĂ©’ at atelier tejo remy & rene veenhuizen in utrecht about the progress on our project ‘hoofdzaken’, the physical object itself is slowly coming together and we are discussing the typography i wil be applying and how the whole will work and look, an exciting process and another opportunity to experience just how much more difficult it is for a product designer to make something innovative than for a graphic designer…
