back

After a long break I'm back.
Everything seemed to be too much for me at the moment, I noticed how my life started to get too heavy. Family, several difficult projects and jobs, my studio, etc. I needed more time for everyday life and myself. So I decided to cancel some sideprojects, less mini jobs and this suuuperdeadlines and more freetime weekends for my family and friends. And it's really good!! Luckily for me!

Edvard Mirror : JEAN FRANCOIS D’OR

Starting from a simple geometrical shape, this truncated conical mirror allows different positions for different kind of functions. Fixing on wall, the mirror is a sort of megaphone that makes the wall scream for reflection. Hence the name EDVARD, after the Norwegian artist Edvard Munch, the man behind the painting ‘The Scream’.

Good Night Lamp : Kickstarter

I'm really in love with the idea of the Good Night Lamp founder Alexandra Deschamps - Sonsino:

She would like to think that people can share parts of their lives with their families & loved ones in more subtle ways with the flick of a switch, like a physical social network.  The Good Night Lamp is a family of internet-connected lamps. Turn the Big Lamp on and the Little Lamps turn on wherever they are.

So please support this Kickstarter campaign, I think this an amazing project!

365 : siren elise wilhelmsen

Thoughtful project by Siren Elise Wilhelmsen. In her own words: 365 is stitching the time as it passes by. It is knitting 24 hours a day and one year at the time, showing the physical representation of time as a creative and tangible force. After 365 days the clock has turned the passed year into a 2-m long scarf. Now the past can be carried out in the future and the upcoming year is hiding in a new spool of thread, still unknitted.
