e're proud to present our gallery/design store called Strijp-X in Eindhoven. Throughout the year you'll be able to find designs from a selection of designers in our store and we'll host exhibitions in our space as well. This video shows our first exhibit curated by Piet Bergman. It opened during the Dutch Design Week 2008, and served as the kickstart of our new venture. more info soon on strijp-x.com

One hundred years ago, when it was first invented, no one anticipated that plastic would present one of our biggest recycling challenges. Arts & co has commissioned 8 contemporary designers to think about recycling and using plastic in their creations. www.arts-co.com
Kithkin is a group of creative friends who form a platform to show and promote their work. Recently we caught up with them to talk about their new store, which gives away (and also sells) digital blueprints to a wide range of products. Some Rights Reserved lets designers get ideas out directly to the public, on their terms. Designers have greater creative freedom, flexibility, spontaneity, and control over licensing. Consumers are given the chance to purchase design instantly, either printing it out on their own printer or taking the file to a listed supplier for production. www.kith-kin.co.uk

With two fat orange books, the Berlin graphic design agency Neubau has taken the world by storm. NeubauWelt and NeubauModul are the titles of these two volumes, bursting with thousands of black-and-white patterns and illustrations. What would it be like not just to flip through pictures, but to take an actual walk through Neubau?s world?

Kiki van Eijk and Joost van Bleiswijk take us on a tour through their latest collection. The designer couple usually has the same starting point but their different working methods bring a unique approach to each of their works. For this collection they took their inspiration of the past and the idea of making a collection of works. It?s about memories about forgotten objects, values or techniques. www.projectjoost.com www.kikiworld.nl

Made in China, made in Holland, made in Italy…What does it really tell us about a product’s origin? Is a car or a toy or a shirt ‘made in China’, just because that’s the country where it left the factory?
For Made in Someland, MLY used modern, ecologically friendly textiles, such as bamboo yarns, while avant-gardistic silhouettes reflect the 19th century travel component which inspired the collection. Far Eastern influences are clearly visible in the ethnic, Asian designs and patterns, while the presentation of the collection has a typical Dutch setting, with Eindhoven skylines, Dutch heath lands and industrial landscapes.
