…i find repetitive work soothing, it calms me down and allows me some time to think about other things while being productive at the same time. I like the tension between systematic approach, legibility and (ir)regularity. I find it equally interesting to only draw the textures and end up with patterns…

noir

current_obsessions_noir

serial entrepreneur, designer and well-dressed man joachim baan launched his latest project this evening: a gallery, shop and studio in-one where he will be sharing his many obsessions

to kick off the venue he is starting with a modest collection of black objects, art, books & products (some expensive and all for sale) entitled simply ‘noir’, check the site for opening times and more info… and of course, good luck from me
