Holland’s next top deskresearcher !!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Een tijdje geleden heb ik een finale plaats gekregen in de zoektocht naar nieuw trendwatch talent. In de finale die 1 maart a.s. gehouden wordt, zal bekend gemaakt worden wie van de 5 finalisten kans maakt om in het YoungWorks trendteam te komen. Youngworks is het bureau voor jongerencommunicatie. Voor meer informatie over de wedstrijd of/en YoungWorks, kijk dan eens op de onderstaande blog en website.

Ik vind dit een super leuke maar ook wel heel spannende uitdaging! Ik heb er ontzettend veel zin en ben heel benieuwd wat me te wachten staat!

coolhunt 4, Bring new life in old rubbish!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

what is it?

The Lodekka bus boutique is a remarkable hip-fashion store fitted ingeniously inside an old double-decker bus.

why is it cool?

I think this is cool because you use space and materials that already exist. I mean, that’s already made and not used any more. By this bus for example you don’t need any new produced materials which is advantageous for the transport costs and environment. Besides I think this is a creative way to think in other opportunity’s to live or work in. I think we really need this way of thinking because we live in a society that’s growing every day more and some commodities and materials aren’t soon available any more and we need replacement.

So my opinion, use the space, buildings and materials that already exicst or even better, think more creative and create some totally not standard like this bus that’s translated to a clothes store.

Creative Paradise, I like the way you art!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Vandaag bezig geweest met het ontwikkelen van een nieuw living meets exhibit concept voor het Zwijnsengebouw op de Fontys campus. Creatief bezig geweest met mindmaps en hebben een orgineel en inspirerend concept bedacht! Centraal staan interactie en inspiratie tussen de studenten van de IEMES en ILS.

meer info over het concept zal snel volgen

Feeling like a inflated seal today

Mijn hoofd staat op ontploffen

Mijn energie zit ergens waar ik niet bij kan

Mijn buik praat tegen mij

En mijn concentratie is ver te zoeken

Zal ik me beter voelen na een overdosis vitamine pillen??

what to do?

ooo wat haat hekel ik de winter..

No impact week

Had geen impact op mij?

Ik vind millieu belangrijk, daar niet van..

Ik vind open staan voor andere ‘levenswijzes’ belangrijk

Ik vergat het alleen heel de tijd..

We zitten zo vast in een patroon waar de begrippen elektriciteit, warm water en afval zo vanzelfsprekend zijn dat je er niet eens bij nadenkt.

Eigenlijk kunnen we niet zonder, denk alleen maar aan het missen van je telefoon of laptop? nee heh?

conclusie, duurzaam is oke maar er zijn grenzen voor mij.

coolhunt 3, search for the differences

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

what is it?

Probably you see that this chair looks a lot on a garden spade. This chair (how appropriate) has the following name ‘Spade Seat’. This Spade Seat has made by Nic Roex of recycled metal.

why is it cool?

Roex realized that the scoop of the shovel embodies a similar form to the human buttocks. How cute! This chair is cool because I link it with the ‘nature’.  It’s a chair that is made of recycled material and it has a presence of a garden tool. So if you are a big fan of gardening this chair is a recommended. But I ask myself if it’s very comfortable..

coolhunt 2, recycle your trenchcoat

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

what is it?

This seat, made of old trech coats, I found on trendhunter.com. The RemadeUSA Ottoman is a hand-made production by Shannon South. She is the owner and founder of this seat and makes all of her leather products by hand from old jackets. You can even send your own jacket and she make a unique seat of it.

why is it cool?

The most amazing thing about this seat is that is made by old jackets. It’s not really obvious to use some old jackets for a seat, right? More obvious is to use other old seats or furniture.  I think to use something that have nothing to do with furniture is really cool. Besides is a experience product. After all, we al want something unique!  No single seat is the same and you can give it a personal touch. And okay, it’s also sustainable because you don’t have to kill more cow’s and avoid that the world will screwed up even more because some smelly cows affect the ozone!

coolhunt 1, Eco-bicycle

 

 

 

 

 

 

what is it?

This bicycle is made of cardboard by Phil Bridge who has studied ‘product Design’ at the Sheffield Hallam University in England. This bicycle isn’t made of  ‘normal’ cardboard but industrial cardboard. This material is a lot stronger and thicker as normal cardboard and used for packaging boxes. The only things that aren’t made of this type of cardboard are the wheels, chain and the bottom bracket. These are like every bicycle of metal, iron and other material. The price of this bicycle is about 35 to 40 euro’s.

why is it cool?

Phil’s idea was to build a bicycle of cardboard because it’s cheap so everyone can buy one and it makes it not really interesting for people who want to steal it. But I think it’s also a way of being sustainable because you can use old cardboards to produce this and if it’s broken you can recycle it really easy.
