Same work, two different stories. 📸

At our Dutch Design Week | DDW presentation, I saw a cluster of orbs. Photographer Aleko Syntelua Aleko // Athens Product Photographer Syntelis saw crystals. Thank you, Aleko, for stopping by the studio and sharing your view!

As a designer, this is a reminder that we don’t fully control how our work is seen. Once it’s out in the world, every viewer completes it with their own eyes, experience, and imagination.
That’s what makes good design powerful: it leaves room for interpretation. The best pieces don’t tell people what to see, they invite them to look closer.

A big thank you as well to our long-standing partner, Labro Verpakkingen Eindhoven Kortom Karton for their continued support and collaboration in bringing this work to life.

Can you believe it’s already been more than a month since the Association of Science and Technology Centers 2026 Conference in Phoenix?

We’re looking back at some highlights from our lunch talk on Friday, September 18, and the inspiring conversations it sparked!

A big thank you to everyone who joined us. We look forward to continuing the conversation with science museum and science and technology center professionals who attended the session, as well as those who couldn’t make it.

🔬 Want to explore the HEART Board Pyramid?

You can experience it firsthand at the Musée national d’histoire naturelle Luxembourg – Naturmusée, where it features in an interactive presentation in the Future Living Room. This is the final room of the exhibition celebrating 30 years of the Natural History Museum in the Grund.

We’d love to hear your thoughts! How can interactive experiences like the HEART Board Pyramid inspire new approaches to engagement in science museums and science and technology centers? Share your ideas in the comments!

2 more days to go at Dutch Design Week | DDW 🧡 Thank you to everyone who has visited us so far.

Kunstsilo kulen began as a hands-on, modular DIY system for the opening of the Kunstsilo museum in Norway. Since then, cultural institutions and events around the world have recreated it, including Casula Powerhouse (Australia), THEMUSEUM (Canada), Zuidparktheater and Betovering Festival (Netherlands), and ARoS Aarhus Art Museum (Denmark).
What stays with me each time is that visitors don’t just look, they build.

It also feels like a full circle to show it here. The materials come from our long-standing partner Labro Verpakkingen Eindhoven Kortom Karton, with raw material from Smurfit Westrock Kappa, which we can see from our window in the exhibition space. Local material, local making, local partners.
If you are working on an exhibition, family programme, or event, I’d love to talk about how a hands-on installation could work for your visitors.

Come play, touch, and talk with us at Forward Furniture, open daily until 25 October.

Look up. 👀

This is Kunstsilo - kulen from the inside: a stack of metallic cardboard modules in an autumnal palette, glowing against the concrete above.

Kunstsilo-kulen is a hands-on, modular DIY system we developed for the newly opened Kunstsilo museum. It has since been recreated by cultural institutions and events worldwide, including Casula Powerhouse (Australia), THEMUSEUM (Canada), Zuidparktheater and Betovering Festival (Netherlands), and ARoS Aarhus Art Museum (Denmark).

Why it works for audiences: visitors don’t just look, they build. The system is easy to assemble, scales to any space, and turns a visit into a shared experience.

Materials by our long-standing partner Labro Verpakkingen Eindhoven BV Kortom Karton, with raw material from Smurfit Westrock , whom we can see from our window in the exhibition space.

Working on an exhibition, family programme or event? We’d love to talk about how a hands-on installation could work for your visitors.

Come play, touch, and talk with us at Forward Furniture during Dutch Design Week. Open daily until October 25.

Third year in a row at Dutch Design Week | DDW , and it still feels like the first day of school 🍂
Our interactive exhibition at Forward Furniture is open daily until 25 October. Thank you to everyone who joined us this weekend!
📍 Gebouw TX, 6th floor, Achtseweg Zuid 187, Eindhoven
🕚 Daily, 11:00 to 18:00
One detail we love: from our window, we look straight into Smurfit Westrock , where the raw material is made. Right next door, our long-standing partner Labro Verpakkingen Eindhoven Kortom Karton custom-made the materials for this installation in a rich autumnal metallic palette. Local material, local making, local partners 🧡
The installation was originally designed for the opening of the Kunstsilo museum. Since then it has been recreated for cultural institutions around the world, including Casula Powerhouse (NSW), THEMUSEUM (Ontario), and ARoS Aarhus Art Museum. Seeing it come back to Eindhoven, close to where the material originates, feels like a full circle moment.
We’re looking forward to engaging interactions and inspiring conversations at DDW 2026. Come play, touch, and talk with us!

It was a pleasure collaborating with the wonderful team at the Musée national d’histoire naturelle Luxembourg - natur musée on an interactive presentation in the Future Living Room, the final room of the exhibition celebrating 30 years of the Natural History Museum in the Grund!

The HEART-board pyramid will be open for visitors to explore and interact with tomorrow during Museum Night! And if you can’t make it tomorrow, you’ll have until mid-March 2027 to experience it.

Wishing the dedicated team many more years of research, remarkable collections, exciting discoveries, and inspiring stories!
