Kleur in het alledaagse leven
Vanaf de uitvinding van de machinale produktie van papier en het drukken door middel van losse letters rond 1400, werd voor de produktie van drukwerk voor bijna 400 jaar overwegend gebruik gemaakt van hoog- en diepdruk. In 1796 komt daar verandering in als de 25 jarige Aloys Senefelder, zoekend naar een manier om teksten voor een toneelstuk in eigen beheer te vermenigvuldigen, de ‘chemische drukkerij’ ofwel de vlakdruk ontdekt.

Full Focus on Items
Interview with Almanak, responsible for the new looks of Items magazine.
Text Harmen Liemburg (in Dutch) for Items Magazine 1/2012.
Barbara Hennequin, Jeremy Jansen en Rob van den Nieuwenhuizen zijn samen Almanak, de nieuwe ontwerpers van Items. Vanuit hun studio in het oude depotgebouw van het voormalige Gemeentearchief aan de Tolstraat in de Amsterdamse wijk De Pijp, werken ze zowel individueel als collectief aan uiteenlopende ontwerpprojecten. Almanak, zeggen ze nadrukkelijk, is geen bureau. Harmen Liemburg zocht hen op.

Bison bison
On a visit to the United States you will inevitably come across it at some point: the American bison or buffalo pictured at the bottom of the National Park Service emblem. I have often wondered why he (sorry ladies, his crown jewels are clearly visible) stands brooding, his head turned westwards. It must be dark memories of a time when nature conservation was not yet part of the collective consciousness.
