‘Filter’ installation by Sabine Marcelis @ Dutch Design Week 2016, Eindhoven (@ Baars & Bloemhoff’s ‘Transititions II – The magic of the material’).
This year, Daan & I have been together for 20 years (!), of which 5 years of marriage (yep, it’s serious). We celebrated with a great weekend away with friends (Fleur & Fabian, celebrating their five year anniversary – starting point: our marriage :)).
