Stacked books





Some more photos from Boulevard Leopold in Antwerp - great VM inspiration using stacked and layered books, magazines and postcards. Nice combination of paper and wood, marbled edging and hand-tinted imagery. Building temporary furniture within the domestic space.

Order & Chaos





Some great ideas for presenting imagery and photographs, all seen at Dutch Design Week (except second row right - from Frieze Art Fair, London). *Polaroids in lines or pinned haphazardly *framed over patterned wallpaper and tapestry *boxed drawings *series of photographs documenting one place - the entire image...close-ups...textures.

Also loved the exhibition titles GLAMOUR & DUST and ORDER & CHAOS
