After living in a house in the country side, our client moved back to a large apartment in the center of Amsterdam. They couldn’t get the right feeling to their living room as they wished to. Also some of the existing furniture did not seem to work in the new space.

After studying the existing, we developed a design which included a new colour concept while incorporating parts of the old furniture. We proposed additional new furniture and lighting which fitted into the budget of our client.

We introduced a bright colour on the wall that visually connected the 3 sections of the room. Still, every section has its own function, while through the connecting colour theme and the new furniture elements it maintains the atmosphere of an open space.

A medieval horror film shot with a German English crew in East of Germany

Directed by Christopher Smith, best known for ‘Creep’ and ‘Severance’, the film starred Sean Bean, John Lynch, Carice van Houten and Tygo Gernandt. We transformed many historical monuments into an animated film set.

A lot of time and afford was spend on hiding traces of modern life such as cables and water pipes. As the sets were build in historical protected monuments like castles we had to be very careful not to damage the building fabric. A real challenge was to work on large-scale landscapes. We constructed among others a burned down village and a monastery compound in areas with no access for cars and without running water and electricity. The interiors ranged from a very detailed witch hut to a grand, stoic cathedral interior.

This year, Tuttobene chose a new location near the Corso Como, in the city centre of Milan. Once again tuttobene formed a platform for 14 designers showcasing a wide diversity in design.

The exhibition was constructed of soft and hard materials promoting the aesthetic of each exhibited design to their best. Every designer had a banner showing name and tuttobene logo to set their mark in the overall exhibition space. All the products where visually lifted off the ground by giving them a shadow line to emphasize their position.

Promoting the Tuttobene online design shop was part of the installation in the reception area. Where the visitors were welcomed and could linger between smaller shop items displayed for sale and could further browse through the entire collection on the computer.

The whole reception area was build from black MDF with red colour accents providing a high quality surface finish.

The exhibition employed two colour schemes: black to give the presentations more depth and red to accent important subjects. The combination of soft and hard materials gave the overall exhibition a strong statement with soft curves combining the individual designers to a group presentation.

A German comedy film set and filmed in Berlin.

Working closely with the Production Designer, we were creating environments that describe the stereotypical characters in this comedy. The task was to design and furnish a variety of interior and exterior sets ranging from 140m2 family apartment to Russian in- and export shop.

The job embraced the planning tasks of a set decorator such as designing, sourcing and liaising with graphic designers and set construction. As well as the actually hand on dressing of the sets.

A complete shop concept for the airport retail chain Capi electronics.

AllYourColours was invited by Capi to develop a complete shop concept comprising interior architecture and product design. We are also revisiting the clients CI, web presence & web shop. User experience & interactive elements have been introduced to the concept.

This electronic goods retail chain has branches throughout airports in Europe and South Africa.

We were asked by Randstad to design a completely flexible Trainings Center which offers the possibility to accommodate very different working situations (brainstorming/ tutorial sessions/meeting/conference/office situation).

We came up with a space where people can create individual working environments which fit their personal taste and need.

One of the tools are rasterized white board walls with multi purpose magnet squares. The elements are made from different materials and colours and can be freely rearranged to generate a complete different look & feel for every room. Additional design elements with sports context were used to encourage a team building and dynamic atmosphere. The colour scheme reflects the Randstad corporate identity.
