Functionals

The dutch label Functionals sells very beautiful industrial designs of different designers like Chris Slutter, Dick van Hoff and Christoph Seyferth
Last year I did a project for the woonbeurs Amsterdam and I met Chris Slutter and he gave a lecture about his work and what inspires him. He showed pictures with many details of bridges and other industrial things. You definitely see what inspired him for the design "Bolder"

Paintings by Koen Vermeule

A few years ago I saw one of Koen Vermeule painting in Kunsthal Rotterdam for the first time and did not like that one so much, but later I saw his landscapes and persons,  that I liked very very much. I think his paintings have lot of atmosphere in it, it 's a framed moment. The black layers give it a lot of depth. Check his website for more... http://www.koenvermeule.nl/







Patricia Urquiola-W Hotels Retreat & Spa on Vieques Island

Again Patricia Urquiola designed surprising interior for a hotel. It's a place where beautiful nature meets design. Seems like a perfect get away, especially with this rainy weather..... Nice to dream a little bit.




Ferm living

I really like the designs of Ferm living, especially their denim pouf. They a have a nice christmas collection as well. Here are a few of my favorites:

Mazzo

A few weeks ago, on al lazy sunday, I was walking trough the city with my boyfriend and we came by Mazzo. We both were suprised and curious so went in for coffee. Really nice industrial interior and a beautiful concrete floor. (minor funny detail, the air system was so loud that it seemed like a plane was ready for take off)

Sevil Peach Architecture+Design

I really love the designs of Sevil peach. This space was great inspiration for a training room at our office i'm working on right now.





Industrial chiq

Recently I had to pitch for a potential client in Eindhoven with my colleague and afterwords we had lunch at  Usine. I love the industrial space and the business, it gave me the big city feel. A must see when you visit Eindhoven, it's close to the Design Academy.

Black & white

Some time ago I saw the interior of the new office of Candy Black design, a creative studio based in Dorset. Inspiring to see the before and the final result. Very strong black & white combination that really works! I almost want to paint it like this at home...
Really love the quote "Possible can be done immediately. We already working on the impossible. But please allow 48 hours for miracles."
