Yes, we are cute!

Actually I just needed an excuse to post this sweet picture of us. Finally the documentation of that thing that we did in NY is on my website.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! to Stephan Huber for helping me about a million times and to Andrea for her indispensible support!

More to come

NewYork.jpg

After four weeks in New York I headed back for Berlin. As always I feel again that I did not nearly do all the things that I had planned to do nor did I see all the people I had wanted to meet.

But still I did not lack good company. I enjoyed in particular to be around Stefan's studio and to get some understanding of his definition of graphic design. His idea of graphic design as interaction with society works for me as a healthy alternative to the emptiness of a pure formalistic approach or the dullness of optimizing corporate identities, cleaning up layouts or fucking pixels in order to pave your way through websites.

Carpets

No, this is not another artsy-fartsy project from some art school. These are Stefan's war-carpets from Afghanistan.
