NYCxDESIGN 2017 | Dutch designers at WantedDesign Manhattan By FEDERICA LUSIARDI - May 9, 2017

From 20 through 23 May, 2017, seventeen of the most talented Dutch designers will share their vision in a group exhibition entitled “Human Nature” at “WantedDesign Manhattan” during NYCxDESIGN 2017.

Cover: Renate Vos, concrete ﬂoor-table lamps. Ph by Siska Vandecasteele.

In the exhibition Human Nature the designers communicate their hopes and fears in response to a rapidly changing world: the works demonstrate a wish to interact, to connect and to grasp time. Through the crafting hands of the designer a moment of mutual recognition is created ; products, materials and technologies are deployed to make a gesture of solidarity, ultimately revealing the designers’ human nature.

Dimitri Kruithof, Layers coloured chair. Ph. by Dimitri Kruithof

Three themes are developed within the exhibition.

Manmade By Machine: Technology is embraced as a tool to advance our human language, helping designers to convey their thoughts on a completely new level. The natural and the manmade are ﬂuently combined to achieve a new state of matter, letting the audience forget about the manufacturing method all together. Instead, the works within Manmade By Machine arouse wonder and curiosity. With works by: Design Studio Martens & Visser, Envisions, Studio Plott and more.

Renate Vos: Loev lamps. Ph by Dani Smulders.

Extra Ordinary: By zooming in on everyday human rituals, experiences, objects and materials, the ordinary can be turned into something magical. A glittering installation playfully invites us to become aware of ourselves, our presence and our movement. Eccentric tableware reminds us about the processes that happen in our bodies when we eat. A cheap material turns into the star of the show through clever craftsmanship. Extra Ordinary shows us the unique strength of the designer: seeing the spectacular in the daily life. With works by: Alissa + Nienke, Daniel van Dijck and Jeroen Wand and more.

Margriet Vollenberg Ventura New York Interview de / by Adrian Madlener

Déjà à la barre du studio Organisation in Design, Margriet Vollenberg est par ailleurs à l’origine de Ventura Lambrate. Depuis sa fondation en 2010, cet événement de quartier a transformé un coin tranquille du Nord-Est de Milan en un quartier de design florissant. Ce festival phare accueille un grand nombre d’écoles novatrices, de marques émergentes, de plateformes culturelles et de jeunes talents et s’est hissé au rang d’attraction majeure de la Semaine du design de Milan, loin de Rho-Pero. En 2016, Organisation in Design a lancé une nouvelle plateforme baptisée Ventura New York et consacrée au design néerlandais aux États-Unis. TLmag s’est entretenu avec Margriet Vollenberg au sujet de cette exposition annuelle, qui se tiendra cette année au salon Wanted Design Fair, du 20 au 23 mai.

TLmag : Pourriez-vous nous parler de la vision sur laquelle reposait la première édition, qui s’est tenue l’an dernier ? M. V. : Notre idée était de montrer que le design néerlandais avait évolué. Je voulais garantir un certain niveau de qualité et de professionnalisme en sélectionnant des talents de Ventura Lambrate et d’autres expositions organisées à Milan. Les studios qui allaient exposer devaient savoir comment se comporter dans le cadre d’un salon international. Pour la première édition, j’ai travaillé sur trois thématiques typiquement néerlandaises : l’héritage culturel, le processus du design en tant que produit final et l’utilisation non conventionnelle des nouvelles technologies. TLmag : Quelle sera la thématique de l’édition 2017 ? M . V. : E n t a n t q u e c o m m i s s a i re d’exposition, je suis mon instinct. En sélectionnant ce qui était important cette année, j’ai découvert que beaucoup de designers exploraient des questions centrées sur l’humain. Parallèlement, j’ai remarqué qu’un grand nombre d’entre eux revenaient à la couleur, une évolution peut-être liée à de plus vastes questions qui se posent aujourd’hui dans le monde. Les artistes sont généralement les premiers à réagir à ce genre de mutations. L’utilisation de

techniques de production spécifiques et de nouveaux matériaux reste également importante cette année. Nous exposerons le travail de quinze artistes talentueux. L’une des pièces mises à l’honneur est signée Aliki van der Kruijs et s’intitule Made by Rain. Dans ce projet, les textiles ont été laissés en extérieur et ont pris des formes qui leur ont été imprimées par les forces de la nature, esquissant des motifs visuels qui reflètent poétiquement et viscéralement la place de l’homme entre le monde synthétique et la nature. Crossover Collective de Floor Nijdeken explore pour sa part la façon dont nous pourrions maintenir ou revitaliser les rituels de communication utilisés par les générations précédentes. Ce collectif a en effet mis au point une machine sociale qui permet à un groupe de personnes d’assembler des tissus en les brodant. Après une présentation couronnée de succès lors de la première édition de Ventura New York l’an dernier, le collectif Envision présentera quant à lui le prochain stade de ses expérimentations matérielles et dévoilera une série de produits. Jeroen Wand exposera du mobilier produit au moyen d’une technique sur mesure assemblant des chutes de tôles dans un nouveau composite compacté. Ce matériau fait surgir un contraste entre un élégant vocabulaire visuel et des bords rugueux. TLmag : Comment le design néerlandais a-t-il évolué à vos yeux au fil des dernières décennies ?

TL # 27

TLmag : Quel objectif poursuiviez-vous en créant Ventura New York ? Margriet Vollenberg : Cette histoire a commencé au début des années 2000, lorsque j’ai travaillé pour la première fois à New York. À cette époque, les lieux d’exposition comme Moss Gallery, qui a aujourd’hui disparu, conféraient une grande visibilité au design néerlandais. Puis la crise financière a frappé en 2008 et tout a changé. Il y a trois ans, j’ai discuté avec le consulat des Pays-Bas à New York, qui est assez actif dans le domaine artistique par le biais de la plateforme Dutch Culture USA et m’a dit qu’il était temps de redonner sa place au design néerlandais à New York. Avec le

soutien du consulat et mon expérience préalable, nous avons décidé de lancer Ventura New York sur le Wanted Design Fair (NYCxDesign).

Ven t u ra N ew Yo r k

M. V. : Si l’on se tourne vers le début des années 1990, au moment où le design néerlandais est devenu un sceau internationalement reconnu avec des plateformes comme Droog, on constate qu’il pouvait parfois se révéler astucieux ou agressif. Aujourd’hui, les designers néerlandais préfèrent présenter des idées (des suggestions destinées à résoudre des problèmes majeurs) plutôt que de simples produits finis. Ils mettent au point leurs propres outils permettant de communiquer de tels concepts. Dans ce pays, le design est devenu sérieux tout en préservant l’expression, l’expérimentation et la franchise associées à l’approche néerlandaise. At the helm of Utrecht-based Organisation in D e sign, Margriet Vollenberg has been the guiding force behind Ventura Lambrate. Since its inception in 2010, the neighborhood-wide event has transformed a sleepy pocket in northeast Milan into a thriving design district. Hosting a growing number of innovative schools, emerging brands, cultural platforms and young talents, this flagship festival has developed into a key Milan Design Week attraction far from the trade fair floor. In 2016, Organisation in Design launched Ventura New York as a new platform for Dutch design in the U n i t e d S t a t e s . T L m a g s p o ke t o Vollenberg about the new annual showcase (held this year at the Wanted Design Fair from 20 to 23 May). TLmag: What was your goal in setting up Ventura New York? Margriet Vollenberg: The story starts in the early 2000s, when I first worked in New York. At that time, venues like the now-defunct Moss Gallery provided full exposure for Dutch design. Then the financial crisis hit in 2008 and things changed. Three years ago, I spoke to the Dutch consul in New York, who is quite active in the creative realm through the Dutch Culture USA platform. He told me that it was time to bring Dutch design back to New York. With the consulate’s support and my previous experience, we decided to launch Ventura New York at the Wanted Design Fair (NYCxDesign). TLmag: Describe the vision behind the first edition, held last year. M. V.: Our idea was to show how Dutch design has evolved. I wanted to ensure a level

of quality and professionalism by scouting out talents from Ventura Lambrate and other exhibitions in Milan. The exhibiting practices needed to know how to perform at an international fair. For the first edition, I worked with three themes that are characteristically Dutch: cultural inheritance, design process as a final product and the unconventional use of novel technologies. TLmag: What will be the focus of this year’s edition? M. V.: As a curator, I work intuitively. In deciding what was important to show this year, I discovered that a lot of designers are exploring human-centric issues. At the same time, I’ve noticed that many are also returning to color. Perhaps it has to do with larger issues in the world at the moment. Artists are generally the first to respond to these changes. The use of specific production techniques and new materials also remains important this year. We will exhibit the work of 15 talented artists. One highlight is Aliki van der Kruijs’s Made by Rain. In the project, textiles were left outside and shaped by natural forces, resulting in visual patterns that poetically and viscerally communicate man’s place between the plastic world and nature. Crossover Collective by Floor Nijdeken explores how we might be able to maintain or revive the communication rituals that previous generations used. He has developed a social machine that allows a group of people to embroider fabrics together. After having a successful run at the first edition of Ventura New York last year, the

273

Envision collective will present the next step of their material experimentation and reveal a series of products. Jeroen Wand will showcase furniture produced using a bespoke technique that combines leftover laminate scraps in a new pressed composite. The material contrasts an elegant visual vocabulary with rough edges. TLmag: In your mind, how has Dutch design matured in the last few decades? M. V.: Looking back to the early 1990s, when Dutch design became an internationally recognized brand with platforms like Droog, we can now say that it could be gimmicky or aggressive at times. Today, Dutch designers are more interested in presenting ideas—suggestions for solving major issues—rather than just final products. They develop their own tools to help communicate these concepts. Design in this country has become serious while still maintaining the expression, experimentation and directness associated with the Dutch approach. www.organisationindesign.com www.venturaprojects.com @venturaprojects Ventura New York 20-23/5/2017 Wanted Design Manhattan Tunnel : 220 12th Avenue, New York.

Inspired by unseen energy fields, Calico Wallpaper experimented with aura photography to visually portray the ethereal dimensions of energy shown in the Aura collection. Developed in 1930s aura photography is said to capture a person’s naturally occurring electromagnetic field, which is then represented in photographic form as glowing clouds of color that reveal the person’s aura. The new collection evokes different feelings based on color psychology. Aura debuted at Sight Unseen OFFSITE exhibition with an installation showcasing a site specific responsive chandelier that flickered when touched.

Russian designer Yana Svetlova challenged reality with the Art of Imitation collection. 300 hundred hand-painted tiles where photographed and then digitally combined to create vibrant patterns. Malachite green challenges the eye of the viewer with emerald nuances, the Moon series stands out for its elegance. The collection features also cloud-inspired and striped designs that evoke textiles.

Louise Gray founders Alexandra Gray Bennett and Jocelin Johnson pay homage to the tradition of quilting by creating contemporary heirlooms that can work on a bed as well as on a wall, just like a piece of art. “We had this idea of making the traditional contemporary. Bringing quilting techniques and contemporary graphic design together” say the designers. The new Throw collection is handcrafted from 100% cotton and linen materials and combines simple geometries in white, black and grey.

Interactive electric wallpaper Photo By Charlie Schuck – Courtesy of Sight Unseen.

Wallpaper Projects‘ Silver Studies collection was inspired by chemical experiments on photographic silver paper which were then transformed into large scale murals. The result is a peaceful, yet surreal design that seems to nod at 1970’s psychedelic vibe. Wallpaper Projects is a boutique design studio specializing in the production and installation of custom-made, custom-fit, high end, self-adhesive wallpaper and fabric material wall coverings.

At Ventura New York–an exhibition of Dutch designers presented at Wanted Design–a similar sensibility was evident in many of the objects made from recycled materials. These designers weren’t trumpeting their environmental cred; rather, their work just looked good. The show’s curator Margriet Vollenberg wanted to show how designers are responding to the age of rapid change, which includes global warming and environmental degradation. “We have to think about [recycled materials] now because [the environment is] an issue now,” Vollenberg says. “We have to figure out how we can make them beautiful and functional. It’s not the first year we’ve used recycled materials, but now that we’re getting more used to them, and we know how to work with them, [they’re becoming more sophisticated].”

More than just a trade show, Wanted Design has returned to its Manhattan and Brooklyn posts this year with a full program of workshops, talks, and of course the fairs themselves. Taking over West Chelsea’s Terminal Stores, the Manhattan edition is hosting exhibitors including Alessi, Golran, Ligne Roset, and a collaboration between Caesarstone and Pratt Institute, among others. In its second year exhibiting at Wanted, theRado Star Prize—this year awarded to Brooklyn-based Elisia Langdon—is showcasing the winning project along with those of the finalists in a pop-up gallery space. At Industry City, Wanted Design Brooklyn emphasizes more heavily the work of student designers, as well as international collaborators whose projects have been ignited through programs such as Oui Design’s Transatlantic Creative Exchange and Hors-Pistes (see below for work from both). New to this year’s programming is Wanted Design’s Career Day, which ran at the Brooklyn location on its opening day, May 17. Both fairs are open through May 23. Here, our editors select their favorite presentations from the two boroughs’ editions. WANTED DESIGN MANHATTAN Kera by recent Pratt graduate Elisia Langdon, winner of this year’s Rado Star Prize.

On an all-inclusive note that considers makers from all of New York City's boroughs, WantedDesign continues to give design lovers not one, but two locales and experiences to visit during the NYCxDesign festivities. Each event in turn brings its own special flavor to the fair and exhibition mix. One fair, taking place in Wanted Design's lovely headquarters in Industry City, focuses on the future and community: how has the current economic and political situation we live in shifted our perspective as designers? In what ways can designers around the world collaborate and communicate in order to create a better world? The Brooklyn respite included works from innovative students from around the globe as well as exhibitions organized by Oui Design, an organization dedicated to fostering great design between creatives in the US and France. The Brooklyn space also took some playful turns, even offering some delicious and unusual honey tastings. On the other side of the bridge was Wanted's Manhattan space, which honed in on the here and now by displaying beautiful renditions of form and function by working designersâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the Manhattan fair offered up selections from small local furniture studios, a number of pieces featured in Salone's Ventura Lambrate exhibit in Milan, as well as several interactive stations ruminating on topics such as immigration, news echo chambers, each one thought up by students in the SVA Products of Design Program.

Van der Kruijs has lived in the Netherlands her entire life. Over the years, she noticed that rain in the country has become heavier, more frequent, and warmer.

“Weather data comes in statistics and I wanted to create a more visual way of archiving weather,” van der Kruijs says in a video explaining the project. “I see the textiles as documents–they’re all unique.” To make the fabric prints–which look like a cross between shibori and tie-dye–van der Kruijs uses two techniques. For the first, she superimposes a water-soluble ink sheet over a white textile. She rolls out the silk fabric on a flat surface and when raindrops hit the material, the ink bleeds onto the white fabric. For the second technique, she uses fabric with ink already soaked in. When the rain hits the surface, the ink pools. For both processes, she only exposes the fabric to five minutes B Y D I AofNrain, A then fixes the fabric to preserve the pattern the rain generates.

“It’s the secret of the chef,” Belgian designer Isaac Monte tells me when I ask about how he’s able to grow clusters of gorgeously colorful, super-saturated crystals around vases, cups, and other objects. A

At Ventura New York, Monte exhibited pieces from his series Crystal Icons, an ongoing project in which he “petrifies” classic design objects, encrusting them with glittering shards of crystal. This time, he picked a Michael Graves tea kettle, a Stelton carafe, a Philippe Starck juicer, a Richard Hutten sippy cup, and an Aalto vase.

Monte’s work focuses on finding ways to harness biological processes to fabricate design. For Crystal Icons, he developed a mineral solution that hardens into stable crystals. To make each piece, he heats up this proprietary solution and lets it cool slowly; when it starts to harden, he suspends an object–a carafe, maybe, or a vase–in the liquid, and crystals begin to form around its shape. “I’m “I’m creating creating fossils and preserving them for the next generation,” Monte says.

something not unlike rock candy. Crystals naturally form through geological processes, but here Monte is adapting the chemistry involved to yield a very specific color and texture. “It’s a collaboration with nature,” he says of the project, which emblematic of the design world’s broader interest in cultivating a more sympathetic relationship with the earth and a deeper understanding of natural processes.

Isaac Monte a développé une technique scientifique pour pétrifier les objets, y compris les conceptions classiques de Starck, Aalto et Graves. « C’est le secret du chef », dit le concepteur belge Isaac Monte quand on lui pose des questions sur la façon dont il est capable de développer des grappes de cristaux magnifiquement colorés et super saturés autour de vases, de tasses et d’autres objets. Chez Ventura New York, Monte a exposé des pièces de sa série Crystal Icons, un projet en cours dans lequel il « pétrifie » des objets classiques de conception, les encadrant de brillants éclats de cristal. Cette fois, il a choisi une bouilloire à thé Michael Graves, une carafe Stelton , un presse-agrumes de Philippe Starck , une coupe de sirop Richard Hutten et un vase Aalto . Le travail de Monte se concentre sur la recherche de moyens d’exploiter les processus biologiques pour fabriquer la conception. Pour Crystal Icons, il a développé une solution minérale qui se durcit en cristaux stables. Pour faire chaque pièce, il chauffe cette solution exclusive et la laisse refroidir lentement. Quand le tout commence à se durcir, il suspend un objet – une carafe, peut-être, ou un vase, dans le liquide, et les cristaux commencent à se former autour de sa forme. »Je crée des fossiles et je les préserve pour la prochaine génération », dit Monte. Essentiellement, il transforme les objets en quelque chose qui ne ressemble pas aux bonbons de roches. Les cristaux se forment

naturellement à travers des processus géologiques, mais ici Monte adapte la chimie impliquée pour produire une couleur et une texture très spécifiques. « C’est une collaboration avec la nature », déclare-t-il sur le projet, qui est emblématique de l’intérêt général du monde du design pour cultiver une relation plus sympathique avec la terre et une compréhension plus profonde des processus naturels.

Artist creates gorgeous patterned textiles from rain Posted on June 1, 2017 by Faisal O'Keefe in Design

America has quit the Paris climate agreement and today’s newsfeeds are bloated with global reaction. Shell Oil CEO Ben van Beurden joined green industrialists Elon Musk and Richard Branson in denouncing Trump’s action. The Vatican lobbed a complaint, saying, “”Saying that we need to rely on coal and oil is like saying that the earth is not round.” It’s surreal, and scary. Let’s take momentary refuge in some natural beauty created by some of the weather we’re about to see more of. Hague-based designer Aliki van der Kruijs allows rain to create gorgeous abstract patterns on specially treated silk and cotton fabrics. She’s no fashionista, this is her effort to archive the weather as it undergoes change. A lifelong Netherlands native, van der Kruijs has noticed that national rainfall is becoming heavier, warmer, and more frequent. Her project, named Enter By Rain, creates printed textiles that are the fingerprints of actual rain. “Weather data comes in statistics and I wanted to create a more visual way of archiving weather,” van der Kruijs says in a video explaining the project. “I see the textiles as documents–they’re all unique.”

Working on the rooftop of her Amsterdam studio, she uses two distinct techniques to create what she calls a “textile register of rainfall in a specific location.” One process involves laying a water-soluble ink sheet atop an expanse of white silk fabric placed on her flat roof. When rain hits the ink sheet, pigment bleeds onto the underlying white fabric. Her second technique uses fabric already impregnated with ink., which pools in different intensities when saturated by raindrops. Van de Krujis named her process “pluviagraphy” (drawing with rain).

Regardless of which process she chooses, the fabric is limited to a five minute exposure to rain. She then applies a fixative that permanently preserves the resulting patterns. Each fabric print is tagged with the geographic coordinates of where it was created, the amount of rainfall it received, and the date, making it a tactile and visual marker of a particular moment in place and time. “I hope that with the textiles I make, people get a new awareness of rain and a new relationship to the environment,” she says in her video. (Link to video here.) The artist has made raindrop infographic in Europe, Japan, and China, with a wider goal of making a world atlas of rain.

Check out the images f her work on her tumblr. She also pops up in boutiques selling the fabric as scarves and shawls. Currently, find her textiles stitched into bedding at Zig Zag Zurich. Today’s news from Trump have me wondering if the technique also works with human tears. Images from the artist’s tumblr page

NYCxDesign: Designer Uses Rain To Create One-Of-AKind Textiles

The collection drew inspiration from a relative's meticulous weather record-keeping DAVE PINTER, PSFK

2 JUNE 2017

When Dutch artist Aliki van der Kruijs inherited a collection of calendars from her grandfather, which documented his daily weather record-keeping, she wondered if there was a way to incorporate weather into her work with textiles. So she developed a way to record rainfall, frequent in the Netherlands, as printed patterns on silk. She calls her technique pluviagraphy. The process involves using water sensitive inks, either on a film transfer or directly on the silk, to capture individual raindrops that form patterns. The scale and density of the patterns depend on the type of rain.

Following her grandfatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s habit, van der Kruijs includes detailed weather documentation of the time at which the pattern was created. This comes in the form of a notation card and photo of the sky, as well as notations printed directly on the fabric.

Made by Rain was shown at WantedDesign Manhattan 2017 as part of the Ventura Projects exhibition, which introduces Dutch designers to the American market. The video below, from Great Big Story, profiles van der Kruijs and shows the pluviagraphy technique in action. 44

I FANTASTICI OGGETTI CRISTALLIZZATI DEL DESIGNER OLANDESE ISAAC MONTÉ Editor: Design Street

Come vengono realizzati gli oggetti cristallizzati?

A questa domanda risponde direttamente il designer Isaac Monté: “Ho studiato molto la chimica dei cristalli. Sciolgo alcuni minerali in acqua calda fino a creare una soluzione satura. Durante il processo di raffreddamento questi minerali si trasformano in splendidi cristalli che ricoprono gli oggetti trasformandoli, ma lasciandone evidenti le linee. Col tempo ho selezionato una formula ideale, che mi consente di far nascere cristalli della forma e del colore desiderato, che rimangono stabili nel tempo e senza sbriciolarsi o rovinarsi”.

La collezione di oggetti cristallizzati, gli spettacolari Crystallized objects dell’olandese Isaac Monté è stata recentemente presentata a Manhattan in occasione della mostra “Ventura New York — the Dutch edition 2017” Si tratta diuna metafora del tempo che scorre, sempre più rapidamente, nella società contemporanea della natura che si riappropria delle cose prodotte dall’uomo…

Crystallized Icons

Si tratta di Crystallized Icons, una linea di 5 oggetti cristallizzati, 5 icone del design ricoperte di cristalli. La sua idea è quella di evidenziare la similitudine tra la bellezza del design e quella della natura. Ma è anche un modo per conservare alcune delle più grandi icone del design per un prossimo futuro.

Il designer olandese prende alcuni oggetti di uso quotidiano e, grazie ad un procedimento messo a punto in collaborazione con il BioArt Laboratories di Eindhoven, li ricopre di cristalli. Gli oggetti così trasformati sono il risultato tra la cristallizzazione naturale dei minerali e l’attività del progettista che interviene nel processo, che può durare anche diverse settimane. Fino a quando cioè Isaac non ottiene la forma desiderata, le migliori combinazioni cromatiche e le dimensioni ottimali dei cristalli. Ogni oggetto risulta unico nella forma, nel colore e nella struttura, grazie allo processo naturale e organico che lo genera. Un perfetto mix fra un pezzo di design, un’opera d’arte e un capolavoro di madre Natura. Oltre ad aver cristallizzato diversi oggetti come lampade, bicchieri, bottiglie, Isaac Monté ha lanciato anche una nuova, ironica collezione.

Ecco qui sopra allineate, e nelle immagini sotto mostrate ad una ad una, le celebri icone del design cristallizzate… le riconoscete tutte? Se non le riconoscete, niente paura! In fondo all’articolo trovare le risposte.
