TRAVEL.frankfurt

JUNE.2009
Frankfurt is a city full of museums and interesting architecture...so, naturally, we went museum hopping and building gawking! We saw the Museum of Modern Art, the Museum of Applied Art, the Städel Museum and many more. We also attended Techtextil & Material Vision, a Materials & Textiles fair. *kb

TRAVEL.basel

JUNE.2009
We travelled to Basel to see the Art Unlimited and Design Miami fairs. We also went on a bike tour around the city to see the architecture, and took a tour of the Vitra Design Museum & Campus, seeing the exhibit of the Campana Brothers. We also visited the Schaulager - a storehouse with a large gallery space for the Emanuel Hoffmann Foundation´s collection of art. *kb

WORKSHOP.communication

JUNE.2009
We had a communication workshop with Marloes ten Bhömer. The focus on the workshop was - no matter what our project was -to communicate well. I created a fictional character inspired by my grandma, and designed fictional objects that would help her to survive without having to overcome her extreme fears and behaviours. *kb

WORKSHOP.concept

MAY.2009
We worked with Ian Ferguson for the Concept Workshop. The brief was to design a recipe of actions that transform an objet without physically altering it - exploring human-object interaction. I took the word recipe literally and chose to investigate using a tin can. I used food from tin cans and prepared food using only a tin can to cut, mix and cook with. I made recipes to make an omelette, cookies and shaved ice & fruit with a tin can.*kb
