Frame (NL) is a bi-monthly international trade magazine about contemporary interior and product design. In 2011 together with Mariëlle van Genderen and Cathelijn Kruunenberg I was responsible for the re-design and art-direction of the magazine. Our goal was to make a content driven layout that is simple and to the point. We gave the magazine a strong but flexible typographic identity, using two typefaces and a set of simple rules to define the different sections. The only graphic interventions are a color palette that changes per issue and the overlapping of text and image.

Lotte Geeven is a contemporary artist who works a lot with Day-Glo colors in her work. This aspect we translated into the printing process, when we replaced Magenta and Yellow with Day-Glo PMS colors. Nature and a german flower book were a big inspiration for Lotte's small projects made in Indonesia, so we made a third flower-book of the same size. The editorial part of placing the images was a big part of the concept, we used associations within color, content and form to create the order. All groups are then placed again in an index at the end of the book. Designed together with Karen van de Kraats.

Where They Create is a book published by Frame publishers. The book is a selection of 32 artist / creative studio's and offices from all around the world, that where shot by Australian photographer Paul Barbera. The books have a hard bound silkscreened cover. Each book has a cover sticker of one of the 32 participants from the book. This making for 32 different book covers. The layout is a mix of small and large images, zooming in and out of details, emphasizing the voyeuristic nature of Pauls' photographs. The studio portraits are accompanied by an interview, streamers and a large quote that introduces each of the stories.
