Out of print

August 27, 2012

"Out of Print" is an interactive installation which will run from 17-23 september as a part of Brompton Design District and London Design Festival 2012. The project, created by a group of London based designers, will explore the shift in communication technologies and printing techniques. For this installation they build a digital application that will generate random headlines from live news feeds, these then will be printed on custom-built letterpress made by team from Goldsmiths College Design BA. The printed results will be exhibited as a part of installation. I'm quite curious about the results and the custom-built letterpress of course.

Type walk in Ghent. Before & after. Marchandises & stories.
March 28, 2026

Tucked away near Sint-Jacobsplein in Ghent once stood a place that many locals still remember with a certain nostalgia: Marchand’10. The name Marchand’10 (Marchandise) — French for “merchant” — suited the place perfectly. This was never just a shop, but a world of its own. It felt more like wandering into a densely packed cabinet of curiosities.

Het Waterhuis aan de Bierkant is one of Ghent’s most recognizable cafés. With its large beer selection and sunny terrace along the water, it attracts locals and visitors from all over the world. But this is more than just a place to have a drink—it’s a building with a long and surprising history.

Type walk in Ghent. Before & after or from lace to lunch: the changing story of Kraanlei 33.
January 6, 2026

It’s been quite a while since I started my Sunday type walks. What began as a simple stroll through the city—my only free day as a self-employed graphic designer—quickly became a way to move, clear my head, and indulge my long-standing fascination with typography in all its forms. Whenever I arrive in a new city, I instinctively take a type walk; the streets are full of hidden typographic gems, waiting to be discovered.

January 5, 2026

From 24 January to 23 February 2026, the participants of this year’s Long Live the Black Art programme will take over a small exhibition space at the Museum of Industry in Ghent.
They’ll be showing a mix of personal work and their final projects from the programme — not just polished prints, but also glimpses into how those prints came to be. Think process, materials, experiments, and the decisions made along the way.

Letterpret or Alphabet Cards
November 29, 2025

The wood-type collection at the Museum of Industry in Ghent is exceptional, and I’m lucky to work with it every day. Typesetting cards and posters, pulling prints in the museum’s workshop — even after all these years I’m still discovering new, curious, and beautifully worn pieces in the drawers.
