With lots of pride and enthusiasm I can tell you that I am now also co-founder of @zee.fier! Together with @anneboermans we decided to upscale the artisanal processes for seaweed dyeing that I have been working on for the past 8 years. Together with a team of experts we are making seaweed dyes available for the entire (textile) industry. We are proud to present our new color palette coming @dutchdesignweek at the “It’s in our Nature” exhibition at Klokgebouw.

VALUE // VALUES

We are excited to announce that we will be showing you our project Value // Values at DDW 21. In our interactive installation, we question how your values translate into value. We know what things cost, but do we know what they are worth? When buying an object, the facts about how it was produced are not available or they tend to be overshadowed by marketing stories, making it hard to determine if your values resonate. Transparency is key if we are to determine value based on all the facts and true stories, and so we can relate to, and create a bond with an object. This connection is a necessity if we want a sustainable world. The studio developed two carpets for this exhibition. We followed the process from sheep to final product. One of the carpets is made in Armenia and the other one is made in the Netherlands.

If you are aware of the stories and facts behind a product, will that influence the way you value it?

See you at Microlab (Strijp-S) Dutch Design Week 2021!

Did you know herbs are known for medicinal effects

Did you know herbs are known for medicinal effects? Maybe you have visited us two years ago at the Dutch Design Week and you have participated in our exhibition H.E.R.B.S. In that case, you already know that they also can be used as natural dyes! This year, we are working with the @CirculairWarenhuis for the coming DDW on a new and herb dyed variant of the recycled towel daybed from the project “When recycling is (not) the answer”. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Did you know that besides using rosemary as a flavor in your food, you can also use it for its beautiful color?Nowadays we are experimenting with rosemary from our own studio garden to make different dyes and the smell in the studio is amazing!

We are proud to present you the REA-SEA ME stool!

We are proud to present you the REA-SEA ME stool! This project originated from a research in recycling fish skins into sustainable leather, to raise awareness about precious materials coming out of the sea. After the first prototype in 2015, we teamed up with Objects With Narratives to develop it further. The stool is made with naturally tanned salmon leather from Searious Fish which are made from supermarket fish waste. Since fish have a different type of connective tissue compared to mammals, the leather of their skin is relatively stronger than regular leather. The new designed system consists of stainless steel and allows the leather to be easily tensioned again or replaced, with the aim to optimize durability.

Now available in the shop!
