Most striking feature:
What I love about this year’s Inside Design was the inclusion of spots hosting a pop up. Like the fantastic contemporary department store Options! (they let children color their own birdhouse) and Dutch Design Year from Eindhoven. Inside Design is a design event organized by Dutch ELLE Decoration. They take over IJburg (an area somewhat outside Amsterdam) and bring you the best in young- and more established design. Autoban for example is a huge name, while Noortje de Keijzer just graduated from the Design Academy and also got a chance to show her work. Here’s what caught my eye during the last day of Inside Design.

My favorite department store, Options!, now has a mobile pop up shop who’s ready for events just like Inside Design.

ELLE Decoration exhibition: tussen Kas & Keuken (in between glasshouse and kitchen).

IJburg turned yellow last weekend

Love those lights. All from Dutch Design Year, Eindhoven.

Had de kaartjes niet gewonnen… maar kon het toch niet laten om zondag op de fiets te stappen. Options denkt inderdaad lekker out of de box…door in een box te gaan
Label had erg mooie leren tassen, meubels en stoelen bekleed met oude leger tenten.
Al met al erg mooie dag gehad!
Wat fijn om te horen zeg! Ja, die pop up box van Options! willen ze vaker gaan gebruiken op leuke events. Ik ben in ieder geval voor
Groetjes, Pauline
