With François Hollande becoming France's new president today, the words France, Hollande and Berlin are trending. Also in my book, as I'll be in Berlin for my first time ever in a few days.

Photoshoot @ Studio Sapique
Last week a team of 6 super talented people spent a few days at Studio Sapique for a photoshoot. Tree days of styling, talking, eating, laughing and shooting resulted in some beautiful photos. It is so refreshing to look at your own home & workplace through the eyes of some true interior design professionals. We Read article…
Blossom before thunder
Unpredictable april weather stands for dramatic skies which are the perfect backdrop for the fresh white blossom in one of the trees at Studio Sapique. I couldn't help myself and shot some cheesy blossom photos.

Geometric Porn
This weekend I met someone who was very much into adult videos/photos. He seriously suggested me to become an adult website designer, because there is a huge demand for talented designers. He showed me a few examples and I must say I saw more porn in those few minutes than in my entire life. However, Read article…
