I recently saw a remarkable TED Talk online by American economist
Robert Gorden, who states that our economy is over its peak, because
we will never be able to match the stream of innovations of the last
150 years. According to Gorden, economic growth is only maintained
artificially by, for example, creating money. Inventions like electricity
in the home, the petrol engine or the Internet have brought about great
changes in society. This has resulted in a great deal of work, also for
designers. New materials brought new trends and new production lines;
technology gave rise to new needs and, therefore, new machines.
Inventions on that scale will not take place again, predicts Gorden. But if
that’s true, and pioneering innovations fail to materialise, will designers
have to find a new line of work?
Yes and no. The development and design of the final product may no
longer evolve, but use of materials, production process, our relationship
with modern technology, and our quality of life leave much to be improved.
Now the real work begins. Designers have long since taken this path
and dare to propose radical ideas. And at Milan Design Week, there is
more and more room for discussion of and reflection on social issues.
During Milan Design Week, I would suggest you not only allow yourself
to be tempted by beauty (that too!), but also allow yourself to be inspired
by new solutions to today’s problems.
And yes, we’ve all returned to Milan; the international design scene
is here to refresh itself with the best coffee and finest food of any design
event. The city is exploding with the latest innovations and trends for
implements and appliances, and currently also with more and more socially
committed exhibitions on current dilemmas. To give a few Dutch examples:
the collaborative exhibition ‘Money, Meat and Cosmetic Surgery’, by
designers Bora Hong, Rolf Bruggink and Isaac Monté, who each in their
own way address today’s habits of consumption (34 p.16 & p.19). The
‘Touch Base’ presentation by Design Academy, about an opposing view
to the excess of technology (54 p.21). The HKU addresses the present-
day issue of uprooted refugees (40 p.17). And Meike Fleskens, who
presents Capsel at ‘The Alternative’; she proposes making clothing out
of our own hair (25 p.13 & p.14). And there is so much more.
The Dots includes all Dutch presentation. Thirteen designers were
selected to stand close in front of the camera of photographer Boudewijn
Bollmann, which resulted in nine intimate images. The portraits and
interviews are included throughout the guide. This year, The Dots is more
visible than ever thanks to the iconic dispenser by Italian-Dutch brand
Felicerossi. These keep The Dots neat and even easier to find.

the dots #136 SIBA SAHABI
Text: Annemiek van GrondelPhotography: Boudewijn Bollmann
The work of Siba Sahabi (1979) ap peals to the eye and simulta ne ously evokes the sound of poetry recited in one ear and music in the other. But it not only gives a sensory effect, it also carries a message. ‘I see my self as a poetic designer’, says the German/Iranian designer who lives and works in Amsterdam. ‘Design to me means
interacting with relevant themes in an attempt to express cross-cultural ex - change, both in space and time. Through my work I want to point out positive effects of “melting pots” and show how cul tures can influence each other and how this can lead to new expressions.’
A passion for crafts permeates the designs of Sahabi, whose Iranian grand - mother knotted tradi tional carpets and whose parents run a Persian carpet store. Her grad u ation project at the
Gerrit Rietveld Academy was based on Persian carpets and a comparison between traditional and so-called ‘modern nomads’.
Sahabi translates cultural heritage into contemporary design through both an interpretation of historical forms and materials, and concepts. For instance, she designed Mudéjar, a partition screen that con nects Middle Eastern and Euro-pean aesthetics through shared histo-ry. Mudéjar, made out a mix of resin and
chalk, looks like concrete. ‘The room di-vider is inspired by the window grates of Andalucian architecture and is based on a sim pli fication of the traditional Moorish patterns’, Sahabi explains. ‘The so-called “Mudéjar style” consists of construc tive and decorative Middle Eastern forms combined with Spanish building materials such as brick, iron and plaster.’
At Rossana Orlandi’s gallery, Mudéjar will be on show next to Al-Andalus,
a chess-set with trian gular pieces. Al-Andalus is both a spec ta tor and the protag onist in the self-titled, carefully composed film Sahabi made in close collab oration with others. ‘I work with cinematog raphers, pho-tographers, composers, dancers and choreographers on a regular basis’, she says. ‘I started to work with other media because I wanted to express the context of my designed objects. Working with moving images gives
me the opportunity to visualize my researchin a narrative way. Collabo-rations are like conversa tions; they evolve through the input of different ideas and perspectives.’

the dots #13 7ARNOUT VISSER
Text: Annemiek van GrondelPhotography: Boudewijn Bollmann
His ‘impossible’ experiments gave many a craftsman a headache. Award-winning self-producing designer and inventor Arnout Visser (1962) calls himself a ‘form finder’: a functional artist who explores the boundaries of autonomous art, indus trial design and experimental science.
His star shone early: at the age of 19 he won a design competition with an in-genious lamp, which was promptly taken into mass production. After studying at
ArtEZ in Arnhem and Domus Academy in Milan Arnout Visser was welcomed into Droog Design, with successful lit-tle wonders such as Table Tap, Fruit on Wheels and Salad Sunrise. Nowadays he prefers to go back to the source: work ing directly with artisans and glass compa-nies, being involved from A to Z.
Although he also uses ceramics, wood and other materials, glass is the ultimate for him. ‘I foresee a “Glass Age”: the ten-sile strength is unprecedented. I am eu-phoric to see something big come about after many failures. In fifteen minutes a glassmaker has to get the job done, and
that’s hard, hard work. No robot is able to defeat his lungs, yet. A glass blower is a combination of a heart surgeon and helicopter pilot.’
Visser’s Big Mushrooms, who vary in colour, from cool to warm, and pro-viding a mind-blowing experi ence, can be ad mired at two exhi bitions in Milan. The shape arose using antique optical moulds, which caused inter esting irreg-ularities. The glass designs came about through intensive research and exper-imenting in the Czech Republic. More specifically: Bohemia. Where else than in an area with such a name could magic
mushrooms originate? The spirited Visser has traits of a bohemian him self, but thanks to his knowledge of the laws of physics, he keeps both feet firmly on the ground. Neverthe less, he likes de-fying design laws. The Mushroom Lamp is twice as large as what is regarded as normal. Visser: ‘It’s not possible, I often hear from artisans. If you do something every day, you develop a blind spot for it. My challenge is to immerse myself in re-search and experiment in order to prove them wrong.’
Inventing can also mean creating some thing new out of something old.
Visser is a master of upcycling: he made a floor lamp from old dishes and plates, and lamps from eye glasses and con-tainer glass. In inferior glass packag-ing he sees quality. He regu larly helps out in a Kenyan glass fac tory, set up by German hippies, which provides locals with work. ‘With waste oil as fuel they use melted window glass to make prod-ucts that are full of bubbles and pits. A Venetian glass blower would be knocked over back wards in horror, but we ap-preciate this so-called “bush glass”.’ He also provided African women with a mould to make buttons out of glass. ‘Big
companies enrich them selves by having their products made in low-wage coun-tries,’ he says. ‘I prefer to help locals making something they can sell them-selves. Although I realize it is just a drop in the ocean.’

the dots #1310 D AGENCY
Interview: Renske SchriemerPhotography: Jan Willem Kaldenbach
D agency is an agency in which six of the Netherlands’ best designers have joined forces. This seems to be a gold-en opportunity, but why did this not happen sooner? This is a conversation with Guus van Maarschalkerweerd and two of the designers.
Renske Schriemer The website tells us you are a mediator between indus-try and design. Why had an agency for designers in the Netherlands not been set up sooner?Guus van Maarschalkerweerd That‘s a good question. It‘s not for lack of interest from designers. What has be-come clear to me over the past few years is that creatives need support on the business side of things, from acquisition to negotiating fees and concluding contracts. This allows them to focus on what they‘re good
at: designing. But an agency like that – a phenomenon that has been around for, for example, photographers and models for many years – doesn‘t be-come a success overnight. It takes time to invest in relationships. I am able to do this because I work with both designers and clients every day in my role as creative consultant, recruiter and matchmaker at Design-Connector. This forms the foundation for the success of D agency, plus the unique talents of the six designers that I represent, of course.
RS They are listed on the D agency website, but they can also be con-tacted directly. Why would clients go through D agency?GvM Our agency is a one-stop-shop for clients, one central point for dif-ferent tastes and design styles. In the initial stage, there is also one con-tact person, which makes it a lot more transparent. After a meeting to discuss
the requirements, I look for the best designer(s) for the assignment. This eliminates a pitch, and therefore saves time and money. D agency also takes care of the financial agreements and contracts, so there can be no sub-sequent discussion about that. The designers at D agency each have their own qualities, from technical to con-ceptual. They are all experts of indus-trial design, of developing a product from A to Z and marketing it.
RS Acquisition is usually not design-ers’ greatest hobby; was that a moti-vation to join D agency?Thomas Eurlings Yes, but having a business representative is also very useful. As a designer, you often want to get right down to it and present your ideas before negotiations have even been concluded. That‘s not always wise. Guus undertakes this negotia-tion process for us, which really is an added value.
Geke Lensink But it is also obvious that we reinforce, inspire and support each other. And we also communicate a common message to the market – we are Dutch designers who have mas-tered the industrial production pro-cess. This is completely separate from the Dutch Design movement; it is something entirely different.
RS What if one designers keeps get-ting all the assignments?Thomas Eurlings If clients specifi-cally request a certain speciality for certain period of time, then that‘s the way it is, that come mainly from the client.
RS Would it help to send Guus a bot-tle of wine every now and then to get more assignments?Thomas Eurlings No, I‘d rather pop open a bottle of champagne with him when we‘ve received a good assignment.
RS What would be a dream assign-ment for you?Geke Lensink A close collaboration with a foreign client. One who gives me or us the opportunity to design and develop a product that will last for years and will be a best-seller in the international market.
RS D agency will be attending Milan Design Week, but not with a presen-tation just yet; what will you be look-ing out for this year?GvM As crazy as it may sound, for me, Milan is a great moment for distancing myself. It‘s an enor-mous quantity of impulses and a feast in terms of beauty, good food and meeting extraordinary people. When I get home, I let everything sink in and that‘s when I see the trends emerge. And, of course, I‘m business-minded enough to view possible clients from a D agency perspective.
D agencyD agency is the first agency for in-dus trial designers in the Nether-lands. It is an initiative of Guus van Maarschalkerweerd of DesignCon-nector and designers Geke Lensink and Thomas Eurlings. D agency is also the central point of contact for clients who are interested in working with a Dutch designer. The agency makes life easier for both clients and the designer, by carrying out negotia-tions and recording agreements. This allows designers to focus on what they are good at – the creative pro-cess. Current members of D agency are: Roderick Vos, Mieke Meijer, Friso Dijkstra, Thomas Eurlings, Geke Len-sink and Jesse Visser. To view their profiles and for more information, see www.dagency.org.

the dots #13 11KLAAS KUIKEN
Text: Annemiek van GrondelPhotography: Boudewijn Bollmann
With ‘Bottles Collection’, his gradua-tion project at ArtEZ in Arnhem, Klaas Kuiken (1984) immediately garnered success. In a glass oven he developed himself, Kuiken blows archetypal green bottles into unique objects in varied shapes and shows them at many fairs and even in museums. Selling them worldwide helped the designer a great deal when starting his own company. Now, he is focussing on cast iron.
Designer, inventor and craftsman Kuiken is fascinated by artisanal and industrial techniques. The fact that the wooden airplane he built at a young age refused to fly, may have encouraged him to study electrical and mechanical engineering, before going to ArtEZ. But this background allowed him to devel-oping the bottle machine himself. ‘I of-ten watch Dis covery Channel’, Kuiken con fesses. ‘You learn from old tech-niques, seeing how things are made and developed. I want to combine crafts with technology.’
Travelling is important when looking for inspiration and sharing ideas. In Beijing, Kuiken and co-designer Dieter Volkers asked locals to help them to give the term ‘Made in China’ a dif-ferent meaning by cre ating a product with a clear identity: a teapot made out of clay. They photographed the makers and doc u mented their personal infor ma tion. A compilation of 3D scans resulted in one product, called ‘Made by someone in China’. For a resort in Zanzibar the Bottle-Up collective, in which Kuiken participated, was asked
to find a solution for glass waste, main-ly caused by tourists. First he inspired locals to create souvenirs that tourists would appre ciate. Then he noticed that in Africa there are only round grains of sand, unusable for building; ‘sharp’ sand is being shipped from Australia. So he began grinding glass into sand that is suitable for building. Kuiken: ‘Eindhoven University is now doing re-search on how his can be done in a more energy-efficient way. In the end a glass recycling system is bet ter, but for now it’s a perfect solution.’
At Salone Satellite Kuiken and his small team are presenting multiple wood stoves made of cast iron. He looked around in a factory for truck turbocharg-ers and forklift parts. ‘They work with polystyrene moulds’, he says. ‘In a sand container, liquid iron is cast into a funnel. That very light foam burns out and takes on the form. So you can cast iron into var ious shapes. The small compo nents are incorporated in a truck and thus never visible. I wanted to cast iron in a cut foam in the shape of a stove. You can still see the struc ture of the fragile foam
in it.’ Kuiken hopes to persuade people in the furniture industry to make home ac cessories or connection parts, for ex-ample corner pieces for a tabletop, out of his attractive ‘foam structured iron’.

AboutMore and more, designers are shifting their focus from the private to the public domain. Social and ecological issues are interpreted as design briefs from which alternative solutions are developed. Often in small steps that offer solutions to larger problems closer. The aim of The Alternative is not only to provide a platform for alternative solutions, but also to present visitors with a world-view seen through the eyes of socially responsible designers.
25The Alternative – solutions for the social domain

Text: Annemiek van GrondelPhotography: Boudewijn Bollmann
Eindhoven was the place where she grew up, but instead of going to the Design Academy, Meike Fleskens (1988) decided to study fashion design in Arnhem. It turned out to be a wrong choice. After an intense nine-month solo trip around the world, she real-ised her next destination was Artemis, a school for all-round styling and de-sign in Amsterdam. ‘Arnhem focused
mainly on extreme catwalk designs. I am more concerned with being mean-ingful to the consumer’, Fleskens ex-plains. She graduated with a series of textile trend books about the self- centred attitude of people regarding fashion: the materials they use, the fast way in which clothes are discard-ed, the success of dis counters Primark and H&M. Fleskens: ‘Gradually, we are becom ing aware of the disadvantages of mass production and overcon sump tion. I focused mainly on identity: making
clothing more personal. Through cus-tomization you add value, and more awareness of what you wear. One of those books is about the evolution of man and his hair. In prehistoric times, furry skin was very important. My pro-ject Capsel (combination of the word ‘cap’ and the Dutch word for hairdo) is derived from that: a hat made from a boy’s long hair using felting tech niques. It may be an alter native for wigs: to use your own hair or that of a loved one to create a cap.’
Different products made out of hair are being shown in Milan, in addition to the main book EGO (Essence General Outfit) and four trend books with differ-ent themes, like the evolu tion of men and the mixing of cultures, along with loose textile samples, attached with magnets in order to combine them with the images.
Fleskens prefers natural, soft mate-rials like wool, silk, cotton and hair to work with in her concept devel opment and styling projects, in which elements
like origin, story telling, sustainability and tactility are interwoven. These are also relevant to her part-time job at the rapidly growing company Manus Machi-na. Within this large team of technicians who create gloves that serve as con-trollers for video games and other VR purposes, she helps to design patterns for prototypes.
In her own styling and fashion design she likes to keep it small and real. ‘I would like to further develop the Capsel- project, for instance ap proach spinners
in India that I might employ. I want to compete with machines and prove that hand made products still have value. Indeed, they are a matter of the utmost importance!’

the dots #13 15RIK TEN VELDEN
Text: Annemiek van GrondelPhotography: Boudewijn Bollmann
With his furniture design graduation pro-ject at the Academy of Art in The Hague, Rik ten Velden (1983) was catapulted into business. The Knotted Collection drew attention from the media and brought in a lot of orders. The idea for his Femme Chair, consisting of a single knotted rope around a steel frame, and Knotted Lamps popped up after visits to the Maritime Museum in Rotterdam.
There he received a crash course in knotting tech niques used on ships from two older crafts men. His dili gence and patience were rewarded, but it took a little more patience to satisfy poten-tial buyers. ‘A seat for one chair takes about twenty hours to produce’, Ten Velden informs. ‘After knotting miles and miles of rope myself, I decided to look for an opportunity to outsource. A rope man ufacturer advised me to go to India, which turned out to be an exciting adven ture but a failed endeavour.’
A call to his uncle, who runs a boat trip company in Lisbon, proved to be more fruitful. He was introduced to some marine people, started to train them in the knotting technique and gathered together a production team. Now, he sells about 90 percent of his furniture abroad, especially to French costum-ers, presumably thanks to the appealing Femme Chair name. ‘I’ve already sold about 150 chairs, even some to a Louis Vuitton resort in the Maldives’, he men-tions with justi fiable pride.
He finds it particularly interesting to work with craft techniques. Ten Velden: ‘Most of these have proved their value in centuries past. A hand made product often brings with it solutions that are not possible with a machine.’
But designers always seek new expe-riences and challenges. So Ten Velden immersed himself in inno va tive textile techniques at the Dutch Textile Museum. With avid curiosity, he seized upon their knitting machine. After a great deal of patience – again – a beautiful lamp
emerged: Urchin. It has at the same time an almost extra-terrestrial and a warm look, in short: atmos pheric. Ten Velden: ‘Through the use of the material, you can determine the intensity of the light, which is decisive for the atmos phere in your home. But, of course, it must be attractive in switch-off mode as well.’
At Furnishers Market | The Alternative, a floor lamp, balancing on three high legs, a wall lamp and three hanging lamps will be pre sented, all with replaceable shades. In addition to this knitted collec-
tion, the knotted collection is on show, as well as Selectors Cabinet, a steel frame filled with modular wooden cabinets, meant for DJ’s. Ten Velden: ‘It is my trib-ute to music, one of my main inspirations.’

AboutDutch designer Robert Bronwasser passionately merges creative skills, common sense and over twenty years’ experience into useful designs with a one-off look – to put a daily smile on your face.
PresentationRobert Bronwasser is turning the house inside out. Domestic activities provided the inspiration for completely new furniture, focussing on daily use and responding to changing life-styles. The result is a refreshing view on the interior that brings home life back to its essence. SMILE if you get it.
AboutCharacteristic of Pieke Bergmans’ work method is her close study of existing production processes that she then manipulates and reworks. Using this approach she gives the material room to choose its own way. Pieke Bergmans had solo exhibitions in Milan, Paris, Miami, Sao Paulo etc. In 2014 the Noordbrabants Museum in s’Hertogenbosch showed a retro spective of her works. In 2013 Bergmans became ‘Designer of the Year’ in Brazil.
PresentationFor this exhibition Pieke Bergmans collaborated with technical specialists and will show works that are pro-duced in series under her direction. Bergmans intervenes at a certain moment in the production process, so that the still freely moving shape is brought to a stop. Hence every object is unique. The result is a ‘frozen’ moment. ‘Free’ has become ‘Freeze’.

AboutSociety increasingly looks to designers to provide creative, applicable solutions for everyday issues. Solutions need to transcend traditional boundaries between disciplines to have a lasting impact. Students of HKU Design prepare themselves for working in these dynamic environments by constantly taking on new roles and rethinking contexts. This is what we call our education-through-designing.
PresentationHKU Design presents educational environments that foster creative processes. Students will have meaningful encounters with fellow designers, the audience and random passers-by, while working on enduring topics like circular economies, the creation of sustainable spaces and a platform with artwork by refugees that may help give a voice to the voiceless.

Text: Annemiek van GrondelPhotography: Boudewijn Bollmann
They do not call themselves design duo, but Mieke Meijer (1982) and Roy Letterle (1978) work together closely. They met fifteen years ago as students in Eindhoven and have been life part-ners ever since. Their research-based work – ‘furnitecture’, as they like to call it – is a loving marriage between craft and modern techniques, thought-ful designs distinguished by clear
lines, constructive imagery and indus-trial detail.
Meijer’s Design Academy project Newspaperwood, ‘wood’ made out of newspapers, was further developed in a company of the same name, of which they are co-founders. They are current-ly cutting the paper wood into very thin veneer. It is only a mat ter of time before a product arises.
Contextualising architecture is some - thing the two did for the new exhibition Once Upon Design: New Routes for Ara-
bian Heritage in Sharjah, near Dubai. For four months, their Courtyard Cul-ture will be on show – it is an installation that re-contextualizes regional court-yard architecture, with stairs, sitting corners and many cooling plants.
Just like last year, Studio Mieke Meijer is presenting along with fellow designer Jeroen Wand in Prometeo Gallery (Via Ventura). This time, the exhibition stresses the differences be-tween their designs. Meijer: ‘We made clear choices in what we are showing.
Jeroen exposes his identity through products in a kind of Wunderkammer setting, with im pres sions of his work place, testing and manufacturing pro-cesses. His work is intuitive with a raw edge, while ours is rational and mini-malistic. Precisely this contrast makes a very surprising mix.’
Studio Mieke Meijer focuses on a construction principle, which emerged from the Airframe 01 project. The lumi-nous building blocks are lightweight and covered with canvas. The user
determines the size and how it is ap-plied, from tiny to space filling. Letterle: ‘It shows a development in our work that focuses on the area between prod-uct and space. We are doing less and less product design, and focusing more on spatial interventions.’
The title ‘Maybe blue would have been better’ indicates the continuous designer dilemma of choices, the un-certainties in the design process, where and how to present, is it too functional or not at all, sustainable enough, the
right colour, the right market? Meijer: ‘In Milan, I want to discuss this with visitors. Designers sometimes live in a kind of bubble. There should be more room for dialogue.’

One hand reaching out to the future, the other unmercifully digging into the past. Three designers discovered similarities in their work and joined forces, resulting in a challenging presentation that raises eyebrows and provokes discussion.
Their work is characterized by re-construction, recycling, rebuilding and reviving of old things into design that is related to contemporary socio-eco-nomic issues and that finds its origin in boundless curiosity.
‘Rolf Bruggink: House of Rolf’, a.k.a. studio rolf.fr, is fascinated by methods of making, both modern and old school. Bruggink (1969), who graduated in architecture and urban planning, com-bines objects and elements to have these interact with each other visually and/or techni cally. In Milan he is pre-senting his Recycled Currency Seating Series: benches and a bowl made out of hundreds American dollars and Euros. Bruggink explains: ‘Shifting eco nomic forces from the West to the (Middle) East and the digitization of payments will inevitably lead to a surplus of
dollar bills. Solution: to recycle the money into furniture.’ A way of saving, one could say, but above all a call to rethink and embrace reality.
Bora Hong (1979) reflects on another contemporary issue: altering beauty and body manipulation. For her Cosmetic Surgery Kingdom series she disassem-bled and even pulverized simple mass- produced chairs and transformed these into design classics, like icons from Rietveld, Breuer and Eames. Will the new one be the improved one or does this plastic surgery not succeed in com-peting with the original? ‘The pressure
of being perfect is a big social issue in South Korea’, Hong says. ‘I think it’s in-teresting to compare cosmetic surgery to iconic culture in design.’
True beauty is on the inside, ac cording to Isaac Monté (1988). Still, manipula-tion is fruitful. He plunged into the shad-owy world of synthetic biology, in partic-ular decellularization, a lab technique used for organ transplantation. The Art of Deception consists of so-called ghost organs, in this case pig hearts, manipu-lated into design objects; some tattooed, others breathing and lightening up when approached. Monté raises the question
whether such a creation of inner beauty – the ultimate deception – is possible and legitimate. The same laboratory treatment is used in The Meat Project, now focus sing on discarded meat, made into a new material, which can be shaped and dried. The result: lighting ob jects in a shape inspired by the E. coli bacteria that causes meat spoilage. Monté: ‘Look at the enor mous amounts of food that are thrown away daily in supermarkets. This project is a reaction to waste and, more specifically, food waste.’
There is too little space here to elab-orate on these fascinating subjects.
Money, Meat and Plastic Surgery can be visited at Ex Abitare Theatre, Via Ventura 5, and at your own risk. Don’t forget to exhaust the three explorers with all your pressing questions!

AboutHozan Zangana was fifteen years old when he applied for asylum in The Netherlands in 1998. His future starts a decade later when he decides to study at Design Academy Eindhoven. Not an obvious choice, given the road he had to travel, but it is exactly this background that will determine the essence of his design practice.
Presentation 1Hozan Zangana is inspired by language, heritage and rituals; essential elements in our world that do not occupy any physical space. Zangana’s objects offer a new life to old heritages.
Presentation 2The breathtaking antique salons of Palazzo Francesco Turati will host a presentation where the creations of over 125 Dutch designers dialogue with exquisite Dutch Golden Age paintings. Masterly is here to show how the extant Dutch scene has successfully transferred handcraft techniques from its past tradition to contemporary design. curated by Nicole Uniquole

AboutJaro Kose studied industrial and interior design. Beginning his career working for Marcel Wanders, he later went on to create his own design studio Jaro Kose. He now collaborates with companies such as Tjep and Bleijh, imparting a playful and so phis-ticated take on functional objects. Jaro reinvents what could be com-mon place into pieces that relay his passionate outlook on design and creativity.
PresentationCollection of six: Kose believes that artistry happens in the invisible space; between the object and its user. Well designed “space” builds relation and this is reflected in his presentation. Chair, stool, lamps and whisk are transformed into the spatial design.

AboutDesign Academy Eindhoven is a school of change. It offers a four-year Bachelor’s course and a two-year Master’s course and has an impressive, international team of department heads and tutors. The DNA of Design Academy Eindhoven can be described as conceptual, authentic, creative, flexible, free, passionate and curious. We aim to educate idealistic, reflective, critical and ethically conscious design professionals who are able to function as agents of change and, as such, to design alternatives that pave the way forward.
PresentationIn a world where our sense of touch is numbed and sexualised, DAE reconnects with tactility to explore the counter-movement our students are shaping in response to technology. It reveals their hunger for a more tactile surrounding in an era where screens, apps, and email dictate how we live and communicate.

AboutStudio Roex is a furniture and product design studio based in Amsterdam. ‘Immediate acceptance of the presented objects is not the purpose of our work. The designs confront the viewer with familiar and estab-lished processes, elements, shapes and techniques, in a transparent manner. We want to increase people’s awareness of what they see, heightening their ability (and desire) to understand it.’
AboutThe Maastricht Academy of Fine Arts and Design (MAFAD) is part of the Faculty of Art Maastricht and Zuyd University of applied sciences. The Bachelor of Fine Arts and the bachelor Design offer our students a challenging learning environment with outstanding ateliers, exceptional studio facilities and a vast array of different perspectives within a wide spectrum of arts and design. It is within this learning environment that they are able to develop a way of working which is related to their own artistic vision and authorship.
PresentationThe Maastricht Academy of Fine Arts and Design presents MAFAD Ateliers giving insight in the process of making, MAFAD Ateliers invited three masters connected to the Academy who each invited promising students and alumni from the past two years. Emphasing on the new design profiles Body, Object and Material.
the dots #1322 JESKE KAPTEIN, NIC ROEX
Text: Annemiek van GrondelPhotography: Boudewijn Bollmann
Nic Roex (1981) and Jeske Kapitein (1982) are life and business partners. She handles commercial and PR af-fairs, he takes care of design con cept and execution. Their best prod uct is on its way – they are expecting a child in August.
They are keeping the gender of the baby a surprise. Reasonable, as most of the work of Studio Roex arouses curios-ity and surprise. The first prod ucts were
already like that, as the ob jects of Roex’s graduation collection from the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague in 2009 prove; the Car Bonnet Seat, in which el-ements of a bonnet were used, and the Spade Bench, garden furniture in which the seating consists of a scoop. These are objects that already have an existing form and that, by being placed in a new context or being slightly altered, acquire another visual language and meaning, and sometimes even offer themselves up as a new solution. Play ing with exist-ing forms, tech niques and materials by
placing them out side of the traditional context, is an important characteristic of the designs of Studio Roex. Down-to-earth designs with a playful spirit and an aesthetic appearance.
After an internship at Piet Hein Eek, Roex set up his studio in Amsterdam in 2010, and Kapitein joined as a partner three years later. Due to her commercial background, the studio gradually shift-ed its course from mak ing artistic one-off pieces to conquering the consumer market. Bestsellers in the collection are Plumber’s Piece, a leather vase with
a flexible rubber membrane, and Dutch Mash, a potato masher in the form of the Netherlands. ‘We want as many people to come into contact with our products as pos sible, so it was a logical step to choose this direction’, Kapitein says. ‘Since then, we’ve also been working more closely with labels and have tak-en on more com mercial assignments, providing that they fit into our vision of design.’
Where possible, they work with local producers and sustainable ma-terials. For the Plumber’s Piece, they
chose to keep the production in the Netherlands, since so many Dutch production companies in the leather sector are disappearing. Roex: ‘This way, we have more control over pro-duction and material usage. Currently we are investigating how fibres of veg-etable-tanned leather residue can be transformed into a new material in the form of a con structive solid intermedi-ate product. Hopefully, one day we will be able to use the residual vege table leather in sheet material for construc-tive applications.’
At Ventura Lambrate (Camper 2 - 3) Studio Roex is presenting an overview of the entire oeuvre, including the latest Streamlined light and chair (a stylish, organic tribute to plywood) and the Tubus table and bench (a surprising ap-plication of steel).

Rooms dressed like models? It sounds strange and impractical, yet this was what textile designer Roos Soetekouw (1984) had in mind when she was giv-en the opportunity to decorate several rooms in the new Hotel The Exchange, in the heart of Amsterdam in 2010, just after graduating from the Amsterdam Fashion Institute. She created eight interiors, each with a completely dif-ferent atmos phere, from the Eighties
Room and New Rembrandt Room to Room of Mis understood Creatures. Soetekouw: ‘A dream job with no re-strictions, I could do what ever I wanted. The owners selected me because of my gradu a tion project, which consisted of an emotion-based clothing col lection with references to various eras: a sort of time capsule, dropped in a cabinet of curiosities.’
There were only two small requests: please take the house keepers into consideration and make certain things fireproof. Right, but also theft-proof?
Soetekouw: ‘Amazingly enough, except for one curtain hanger, nothing from the interior has disappeared into a suit-case, yet.’ Check! A beautiful environ-ment compels respect.
Soetekouw focuses on interior de-sign projects. ‘Fashion is fleeting: too many collections per year. A chair has a greater chance of survival.’
At fairs her Skinn and Fringe col-lections are sold well. Soetekouw’s style is colourful and detailed, with a hint of nostalgia, and she does not shun experimentation. ‘Mixing materials is
the best thing there is. In fashion and the textile industry everything must now be as simple and basic as pos-sible. I’m trying to prove otherwise, for instance by manip u lating materi-als. How does a polyester yarn react when woven together with mohair, for example?’
One may call into question the pro-duction and coloration of synthetic materials, but the process of making wool and silk also has an environmental impact. ‘By making use of both natural and synthetic materials I am trying to
explore the boundaries of this versa-tile and difficult discussion’, explains Soetekouw, whose graduation project was about the pros and cons of dyeing textiles with plants.
On show at Ventura Lambrate: the Skinn Collection (throws and tapes-try as algae) and the Funghi! Collec-tion (placemats, towels and a runner). Curious about the possibility of mak-ing dyes out of these materials, the designer studied bio-based materials intensively. ‘I want to show people that beauty lies in everything. People might
not be inclined to eat mold, but exposed it is so beautiful! I defi nitely want to experiment more in this area. Someday, I am going to create really useful tex-tiles out of fungus.’
