Time for Art with a capital ‘A’.

The eyes, the lips and the million-zillion hairlines...

I am totally paralized by the skills of my (!) young and extremely talented Parisian friend Marie Blanco Hendrickx.

My Playsam Cars

Oldtimer



Last week I bought these wonderfull Playsam cars in Antwerp.
This will be the beginning of a beautiful collection.

As the leading Scandinavian design company in its class, Playsam creates innovative and timeless wooden toys for the young and young at heart.


The mission is to shape executive wooden toys that exude charm and charisma while simultaneously stimulating the very soul of Playsams audience. The products’ capacity to appeal to the mind’s eye is equally as significant as their bright and glossy surfaces.

Transparent Toaster




It’s see-through! At this time, it isn’t fully functional, but they’re working on it at the Inventables Concept Studio.

This is an awesome concept, especially for people who always burn their toast.
