Post #999 - Giveaway!

After over two years of blogging I've reached my 999th post! Yay!

So I think it's about time I share some goodies with you. I've put a lot of thought into what I should give away. I've decided upon these items:

A Dutch memory game, vintage of course

Collected doodles, an A4 print. My own work (see my other blog)

Djeco stickers by Benjamin Chaud

Doodle, A4 print, my own work (see my other blog)

Birthday calender, the months are in Dutch... my own work

If you would like a chance to win one of these items:

1)  Leave me a comment below, telling me which item you would like to win (make sure to leave me an email address). 

I'd love you even more if you'd start following this blog or my other blog officially ;-))

2)  Spread the news via twitter, facebook or any other means and you will get two chances to win (let me know if you do).

This giveaway runs until Wednesday 13th of December at 8 pm, CET
I will draw the winners randomly and try and announce the outcome the same evening. Needless to say, 5 items, so 5 people can win!

Good luck!

In the right light at the right time everything is extraordinary

Half way through the year I took home a calender which a colleague of mine got from a printer.

It is a huge thing but a fantastic design. A bit over the top, but wonderful! Designed by Jonge Meesters, a design agency from Amsterdam.

Each day the calender grows a bit longer similar to the sun hours, until the longest day. From then on the pages get shorter. 

Typodarium 2011

365 days of type inspiration. Typodarium is a tear-away daily calendar featuring a new font every day. The date - traditional and functional - is on the front page while the reverse contains background information, details, designers, and sources. Can be bought here.

Of course, the Typodarium 2012 is already in progress...

Expressions agenda

Another agenda published by Arctic Paper.

Agenda

My agenda from last year. Made by a colleague of mine.

Agenda Monique

The concept for this agenda is personality. A year in the life of Monique, an average woman in her working and personal environment. Her goal is to loose weight, a bit like in Bridget Jones' Diary. It almost feels like you know all about her through the 'personal' notes on each week spread. As if you're using her agenda. Of course, it's all fake!

Desk diaries

  

Two desk diaries designed by different design agencies for Spinhex & Industrie, a printer in Amsterdam. Each year a different theme, such as the different calendars (Gregorian, Jewish, Arabic and Chinese) or - totally different - fluorescent colors.
Both diaries are bound using a Japanese binding method and sophisticated microperforations.
