Little blue bag I made for my selling point in Düsseldorf. The pattern fits nicely with this design.

Arnhem Central Station makes people look small

During my visit to Arnhem — home turf of my photo buddy Kevin — I decided to give street photography another go. Kevin makes it look so easy. With his tiny Fuji mirrorless and a 24mm lens, he just hip-shoots away and somehow always nails it.

Me? Not so much. My Canon 5DsR with the Sigma 24–70 Art isn’t exactly what you’d call “discreet.” Every click sounds like a miniature thunderclap echoing through the station. So instead of blending in, I hide in corners, under staircases, or anywhere people don’t look.

That’s where I found this shot — standing beneath the staircase, drawn first by the sweeping architectural lines. Then came the couple, walking right into the frame. Kevin called it “fishing” — waiting patiently for the scene to complete itself. It’s new to me, but I have to admit… it works.

Sometimes photography isn’t about chasing the shot. It’s about waiting for life to wander into it.

🏢The Pulse of Amsterdam – Red Geometry in the Sky🧱

Every angle of this Zuidas landmark challenges symmetry and expectation.
With its protruding shapes and deep brick tones, it pulses with quiet power under a gray sky. Captured in full detail on my #Canon #R5MarkII

A big thank you to everyone who joined us for an evening full of sketches, stories, and subversion at Het Nieuwe Instituut!

Together with Max Bruinsma, Renate Boere, Giang Nguyen, we celebrated the Valiz title 'Gert Dumbar, Gentleman Maverick of Dutch Design'—a book that captures the irreverent genius of one of the most influential figures in Dutch visual culture.

From archival deep-dives to reflections on book design as a tool for change, the evening offered a layered look at why making books still matters (a lot).

Missed it? The book, made in close collaboration with Gert Dumbar and Leonie ten Duis, is available via Valiz and selected bookstores.

Recently, I made a box for the Association of Dutch Designers @BNO_nl, as a retirement gift for a colleague. She received such an overwhelmingly amount of retirement cards, that we decided to make an additional one. 🎂🍰

The box is covered with cream natural linen from Van Heek textiles and lined with pink Toile du Marais from Winter Company.
