Das Bayerische Staatsballett / Company Book #1





Das Bayerische Staatsballett / Company Book #2







At the moment I am doing an internship for a half year at Fons Hickmann m23 in Berlin. I am working with 2 other persons on a company book for Das Bayerische Staatsballett in München/Germany. The book will have 7 chapters - and because it's about ballet - every chapter has it's own movement. The page numbers are moving, the grid is different, the color of the paper, the identity of the images and the typography. For the headlines we made ligatures by connecting the words and sentences. The book gives you a feeling of dancing. We will finish the book in a few weeks and it will be in the bookstores in Germany in May 2008. Liebe Grüße Cindy

This is what I do!









I am an intern. And I have to manage the 'info' mail of the designstudio. This is (part of) the junk I got from the last week. 5292 emails, and my job is to get the important emails out of it, which is awesome. I am so lucky to have this internship :D

NIKE NIGHT: PARTY ON AIR




---------------------------
Party invitation for NIKE Europe in Amsterdam. My now good friend, Yew Kee Chung, and I worked on some great top secret projects together for NIKE Europe, this being one of the less confidential projects. Yew Kee is the genius behind Matte, a great design boutique in Amsterdam where I worked on some projects this past year. It was great to be in Amsterdam again, and I hope to be back there again soon.

Scriptie Ontwerp






-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dit zijn een paar spreads van mijn scriptie-ontwerp. De
eerste spraed is de omslag. Die bestaat uit dunne lijnen.
Als je die kopiëert valt de tekst weg omdat het allemaal
even grijs wordt. Zo zijn ook de andere grijze pagina's,
steeds aan het begin van een hoofdstuk. De roze typografie
wordt gezeefdrukt in fluor roze wat ook weg valt als je
het kopiëert. De laatste afbeelding was een test. Ik heb
die gezeefdrukt in drie kleuren, de beelden in mijn ont-
werp zullen er zo uit gaan zien.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

These are a few spreads from my thesis about appropriation and copying in the art and design world. The first spread above is the cover, designed with very thin lines which when copied just turn the page completely grey. Each chapter begins with a page of anti-copy design. The pink typography will be silkscreened in flourescent pink which is a color photocopy machines can not read, and will disappear when copied. The image is just a test, made by silkscreening three colors.

Final stages of production.
