Some people say Düsseldorf is the most underestameted city in the south, but to be honest I'm not one of them. Maybe the city is more appealing to me in summertime. There was one shop though which was very original. Kauf dich Glücklich is a conceptstore with a very creative feel to it. So when you're in the neigbourhood, go check it out!
Beautiful. For men and animal! Clothes, furniture, jewelry, workshops and even travels made with love and attention. That was the vision of the owner of Sukha in Amsterdam. She created a modern litlle departmentstore with style. Worth the visit!
Last weekend I visited a cute little shop in Amsterdam: Het grote Avontuur. You can find all kind of things there for your house which they collect from all over the world. With one thing in common: they are all sweet. Grandmother-hip in a flowery decor!
I just love the trend of Urban Knitting. It's almost streetpoetry to see the vibrant colors and textures in combination with the raw concrete of the city. During the Dutch Design Week in Eindhoven you can try it yourself in a workshop at Tante Netty.
My compliments to the marketingpeople of the Moleskine notebooks. They really master the art of adding emotion to a simple black book. They made a campagne which is nominated in the Design Awards for Best Motion Design during the Dutch Design Week in Eindhoven. In my opinion a winner!
A cabinet of curiosities. In the middle of Amsterdam. The shop The Otherist sells uniquely handmade items that suppose to wow, amaze and surprise. And that they do. Wow!
