Urban gardening is happening and Wildernis in Amsterdam is the absolute hot-spot for all interior and urban plant lovers in our Dutch capital city.<br />
Wildernis opened about a year ago, and it didn't take long for the store to rise to cult-status among bloggers and urban jungle fans.<br />
<br />
It isn't difficult to see why: the interior is stylish and green as well as welcoming and pleasantly chaotic. An impressive collection of houseplants is showcased in a variety of pots ranging from basic terra cotta to contemporary design and quirky vintage finds. The many (many!) hanging plants create an instant urban jungle vibe with their downward cascading leaves.<br />

All products sold at Wildernis have a link with greenery, albeit in the broadest sense of the word, which makes for a varied assortment and something on offer for anyone.<br />
<br />
But Wildernis is more than just a store. Together with their team, owners Mila and Emma are on a mission to make Amsterdam greener.<br />
<br />
Wildernis's goal is to showcase how easy it is to create more greenery in the city: in the (little) gardens, on your balcony, windowsill and inside your house. Collaborating with plantcare-professionals, Wildernis initiates projects, creates awareness and organizes workshops and courses to educate about plantcare.<br />
Be sure to check out the workshop schedule on their website (<a href="https://www.urbanjunglebloggers.com/wildernis-amsterdam-workshop-giveaway/" target="_blank">-in Dutch- click</a>).<br />

This short film was made in 2007, and is still very relevant today. Even more relevant, i would say, with our collective cellphone addicition (the Iphone came out somewhere around the time this movie was made)(feels ancient, right?).<br />
<br />
What to do as a designer?<br />
Should we stop creating stuff altogether or is it our responsibility to keep designing, but do it smarter and make a difference?<br />
Is that even possible?<br />
Can we make a difference by adding more stuff?<br />
<br />
More about this and more video's can be found on <a href="http://thestoryofstuff.org/" target="_blank">thestoryofstuff.org</a>.<br />

I spotted this on Designboom a little while ago. Seems like a pretty great idea.<br />

Last (and only) time we visited Malmö it was February, and it was rather cold and a bit dreary. Nothing at all like the photograph above, which i picked from Wikipedia.<br />
<br />
Anyway, our very energetic local tour-guide friend didn't care for frozen toes and happily led us to all design hotspots in the city. One of the best things on the tour was drinking a nice and hot cup of coffee in a design center with shop located in an ancient building, to be entered through a courtyard: Form/Design Center. <br />

Form/Design Center is not actually a shop per se, but an exhibition-/meetingspace, run by 'Svensk Form' (The Swedish Association of Craft and Design). Like they state on the Form/Design website:<i> "Form/Design Center is a meeting place for ideas and projects in the field of design and architecture"</i><br />
There are regular exhibitions, a programme of lectures, workshops and seminars. All with the goal to <i>"engage and educate about design and show its importance in our surroundings and our everyday life".</i><br />
<br />
And in this center there's also room for a café where they serve the best coffee and tea and you can spend hours going through the vast collection of international and Swedish books and magazines dedicated to design.<br />
Since you're all full of design-inspiration by that time, it would only be fitting you get to take a little design home with you: Enter the Butik.<br />

And here, in this bulwark (yes that's a word, i checked) of Swedish and Scandinavian design, you can now buy Waterworks.<br />
Truthfully: this is making us pretty proud.<br />

It's been a couple of months since we first launched our original 'In the Clouds'-series during ShowUP. (Back then, i wrote<a href="http://houseofthol.blogspot.nl/2015/09/clouds-birds.html" target="_blank"> this blog</a> about the heritage of the clouds and birds as a porcelain print.)<br />
In August, the initial pieces were received with great enthusiasm, and even more so in October, when we presented the first extension of the series: the In the Clouds bowls, during the Dutch Design Week.<br />

And then... well, we didn't put any effort in getting the porcelain pieces out there.<br />
Truth is: we had made the range of variations within the series too large for us to produce in the quantities needed.<br />
This made us hesitant to approach stores and resellers in fear of orders that would be wildly inefficient to make.<br />

Well... we made a few minor adjustments in the design and are now launching a new In the Clouds series.<br />
And this time we're keeping ourselves in check: Instead of offering 24 variations to start with, we're relaunching the In the Clouds cups in one size: medium, two versions: birds and planes, and three possible colours: white, greyish white and light-blue. All cups have a glazed finish.<br />
Still plenty to choose from!<br />

To give ourselves the much-needed time to produce a little supply, we're launching the new In the Clouds / Planes cups as a Crowdyhouse premiere: From April 4th onwards, the In the Clouds/Planes cups will be available exclusively via Crowdyhouse for three weeks.<br />
After this launch-period, the cups will be more widely available and we'll keep you posted about new points of sale.<br />

Interiors are all about the greenery these days.<br />
Every interior photoshoot on every blog and in every magazine features a few strategically placed houseplants; tradefair stands are dressed up with jungle-walls; greenhouses are turned into restaurants; creating full-on interior urban jungles is no longer the exclusive terrain of the hermit down the street (who you suddenly feel like you should be asking for botanical advice).<br />

However, for those of us with major black thumbs (me), houseplants very seldomly become a lush and blooming urban jungle to take pride in, but rather turn into something that can only be described as a painful representation of an apparent inability to take care of living things (which can be pretty depressing).<br />

Anyway, fear not. -All is not lost.<br />
Although we'll probably kill a lot more plants before truly mastering the art of plantcare, over the last three years we've managed to create a pretty green home and a small urban jungle in our studio.<br />

Luckily some plants are pretty resilient when it comes to bad plantcare. Killing those plants might even involve some skill (from personal experience: it can be done).<br />
A few of the easiest plants to maintain are Spider plant, Devils' ivy, Aloe Vera, Peace Lily and Snake Plant.<br />

<i style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">2. Keep the plant-tag</span></i><br />
You know the little tag on each store-bought plant? Don't throw it out.<br />
You'll probably want to take it off because in general it doesn't look very pretty, but make sure to keep it somewhere so you'll know how to properly care for this plant.<br />
A plant doesn't always come with a tag. If it doesn't, make sure you find out the type of plant, and don't forget the name (you can add a nice-looking label).<br />
If you run into trouble later on, you can google away and spend hours and hours researching the yellow tips / white spots / brown edges of your Musa.<br />

<i><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">3. Water regularly.</span></i><br />
If you're anything like me, your first thought when looking at a houseplant is 'when was the last time i watered it?'.<br />
I always forget. I forget right up until the moment the leaves start to droop, which is when i decide i'm too late and try to 'save' the plant by throwing in a bucketload of water. Which drowns it.<br />
<br />
What most people don't realise, is that houseplants sooner die of getting too much water than of drying out.<br />
When dried out, a plant can pretty often be revived with the proper care. A drowned plant however, usually suffers from irreversably rotted roots and has passed the point of no return.<br />
<br />
There are a gazillion helpful tips out there to make it easier to water your plants: from apps to grandmothers' tricks.<br />
We based our natural watering system Waterworks on ancient irrigation techniques and it works wonderfully, we even use a Waterworksset (with a small cone) in our Cactus, and it's thriving.<a href="http://www.shophouseofthol.nl/en_GB/a-37675175/products/waterworks-basic-set/" target="_blank"> More about Waterworks here.</a><br />

Use your plant-tag or google to read up on the best situation for your plant: most plants like their sunlight to be indirect and might even develop burn-spots when put in a brightly lit window-sill. Although very few plants thrive in the dark, there are plants that can live happily in badly-lit places like bathrooms.<br />
<br />
The ideal place for plants is about more than sunlight: they often don't like drafts or being touched by the door every-time it opens, and not every plant is happy too close to the central heating.<br />
Also: plants usually do not like to be eaten by your pet.<br />
Note that some plants (like the peace-lily) can be toxic to cats and dogs and should be placed somewhere the pets can't reach them. (some plants are even toxic to humans, so keep those out of the reach of children).<br />

This might sound daunting, but most plants won't last long if you keep them in the plastic container they came in: they'll run out of space or nutrients and you'll need to repot them.<br />
Knowing when or how to re-pot your plants is one of those things that doesn't come naturally to us black-thumbed people, but i'll promiss you: it's worth the effort, most plants really thrive when their roots have enough space in a soil filled with fresh nutrients.<br />
There's <a href="http://www.wikihow.com/Repot-a-Plant" target="_blank">this pretty good Wiki-how about repotting plants</a>.<br />
When repotting, always use a pot with holes in the bottom and/or add a layer of large stones underneath the soil so it's well-drained.<br />
NB Make sure to run a quick google-search on your plant. Some plants can only be repotted in certain seasons or they won't make it.<br />

<i><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;">6. Use the right soil and keep it fertilized.</span></i><br />
The plants in your house come from different habitats. Some will originate from a jungle-like environment, while other (for example cacti) stem from a desert-like area.<br />
It will come as no surprise that those different types of plants thrive in different types of soil.<br />
Get the right kind for your plants and don't forget to fertilize it once-in-a-while (if your plant likes it).<br />

Imagine being a plant: you're happy in the garden-centre: surrounded by fresh air, warmth, other plants of all shapes and sizes and workmen to cater your every need. But then... suddenly someone picks you up, moves you around, has you wrapped, possibly keeps you in a trunk for a while, after which you're gifted to someone who cannot even keep a cactus alive.<br />
Most plants are not a big fan of being moved: they'll need time to adapt to their new environment and growth will stagnate for a while.<br />
Don't give up on those plants. Give them time. And love. And play some classical music for them, they dig that <a href="http://www.dovesong.com/positive_music/plant_experiments.asp" target="_blank">(click)</a>.<br />

Last year we discovered Waterworks can help you create a pretty thriving balcony-garden.<br />
This photograph was taken during the summer, but in order to get the lush greenery at this level when the warmer weather sets in, it's almost time to get into action and start your seeds.<br />
<br />
Don't worry, you still have time to prepare, most seeds can be sown inside from March onwards.<br />
I made a Pinterest board with some gardening-calendars i found online, <a href="https://nl.pinterest.com/Houseofthol/greenery-tips-n-tricks/" target="_blank">check it out here.</a><br />
<br />
While we're on the topic of balcony-gardening and herbs, an important side note about supermarket-herbs: After years and years of stubbornly trying and being 100% sure they were watered right, i'm pretty certain the living herb-plants sold in (Dutch) supermarkets are just not made to last. They're grown to harvest and be discarded. Not even a Waterworks-set will help you there.<br />
<br />
Better to grow your own kitchen-herbs from seed: You notice the parsley in the photograph? That plant still lives, we were able to keep it green(-ish) all winter by moving it indoors into our cramped kitchen during the (few) colds spells of the past months.J.http://www.blogger.com/profile/11833049006057342178noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3755654671230135553.post-52140362434622104562016-02-12T12:39:00.001+01:002016-02-12T12:39:06.397+01:00New Confetti & Fireworks & why we have jewelry in our collection in the first place<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

Aside from interior products and design-solutions for the day-to-day, House of Thol designs jewelry.<br />
<i>Random, right?</i><br />
Maybe i shouldn't actually say 'House of Thol designs it', since jewelry is really my (Jana's) background, and what i focused on when working under company name 'World of Driftwood'.<br />

<br />
Taking the step to work together with Thomas meant that part of my 'World of Driftwood' projects would have to be put on the side-burner for a while. Which i didn't have a problem with at all.<br />
But jewelry ideas kept popping up, and although we still haven't quite figured out how it fits in with everything, we decided to incorporate some of my jewelry designs into our House of Thol collection.<br />
<br />
Short answer: There's jewelry in our collection because i couldn't help designing it. <i>(saving possible unconscious significance for retrospection)</i><br />
<br />
Right.<br />
Glad we got that covered.<br />

<a href="http://www.amsterdammade.org/" target="_blank">Amsterdam Made</a> is a community platform for makers in and around Amsterdam.<br />
Lucky for us, the 'around'-range extends to Zandvoort (it's pretty much Amsterdam Beach here anyway), which means we got to be part of the community and have House of Thol featured on the website.<br />
<br />
The initiators of the platform were inspired by '<a href="http://www.sfmade.org/" target="_blank">SFmade</a>' a thriving platform established back in 2010 to boost the local manufacturing sector. Amsterdam Made has pretty much the same goal: a more diverse and sustainable local economy, where companies who design and manufacture products locally thrive. <br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Furthermore, Amsterdam Made is licensed by the city of Amsterdam to award an official 'Amsterdam Made' quality label to high quality products that are locally made, sustainable and innovative. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Most importantly: Amsterdam Made connects makers in and around the city and strengthens the bond between entrepreneurs. </div>

The IMM/Passagen in Cologne seems ages away already, although it's only been five days.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We came back late Sunday night, pretty knackered from our lovely long weekend in Germany.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In hindsight, bringing the kids probably wasn't the best idea: it made Saturday and Sunday very much about entertaining them and very little about seeing any design. Well... The Zoo was pretty nice too.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Luckily we had a chance to run over the actual fair on Friday (i took over 23.000 steps that day - thank you Iphone), but we sadly missed most of the Passagen-programme due to lack of interesting stuff for three-year-olds.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Aside from the great weekend away and the lovely reactions in the shop, we received a more tangible token of appreciation from the city of Cologne, or -more specifically- from the 'Kölner Stadtanzeiger', a local newspaper. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We were pretty happy to be featured in their Weekend-special last week. (Click on the photograph to enlarge it.)</div>

Apparently the Belgium city of Ghent is also known as the 'Flower City' (because the largest part of the Belgium Flower trade is located in the area), how very fitting that Ghent shop Kokino is now selling Waterworks.<br />
Kokino might not be located in the city centre, but that's not a problem for the shop: last December they celebrated their 20 year anniversary!<br />

A while ago the lovely guys from Koekepeer visited our studio and made this killer video portrait for Fonds Kwadraat:<br />

<br />
We're happy and proud but also kind of self conscious about it (which will probably wear off over time).<br />
Thank you Fonds Kwadraat and Studio Koekepeer!<br />
<br />
This video is part of a series of portraits from artists who received an interest-free Fonds Kwadraat loan, the series is aptly named 'Fonds Kwadraat Exposeert". <a href="http://www.fondskwadraat.nl/fonds-kwadraat-exposeert/" target="_blank">Click here</a> for more video's from the series (even more will be added over the next weeks)<br />

Passagen / IMM 2016 has started and we're all set up at Salon Zwei in Ehrenfeld, Cologne.</div>
If you're visiting the IMM, don't forget about Ehrenfelds' design parcours, and -more specifically- make sure to visit Salon Zwei at the Gutenbergstrasse.<br />
<br />
Here's a close up of the little map from the Passagen booklet, showing where you should be (#76):<br />

Don't just look through the window, but walk in for a closer look of our latest projects: The first chapter of our stoneware glazing experiment Off the ground and the Confetti & Fireworks necklaces.<br />
Also, many of the products are for sale. Some of them only during this week.<br />

Happy New Year everybody!<br />
<br />
I know, it's halfway through the week already so this might come a bit late, but that's for a good reason:<br />
We're kicking off 2016 with a fresh calendar that's completely full with both new and ongoing projects, interesting collaborations and exciting adventures. We love what we do, and right now we could use more hours in a day to do it...<div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Coming up, for example: We'll be in Köln during the Furniture Fair IMM later this month, where we hope to showcase a renewed version of our 'In the Clouds' tableware. </div>
<div>
Expect more about the exhibition soon.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Also, this is the last month the exhibition <a href="http://www.houseofthol.blogspot.nl/2016/01/not-to-miss-ceramix-bonnefantenmuseum.html" target="_blank">Ceramix</a> is running in the Bonnefantenmuseum in Maastricht, so if you have the chance, make this month a bit less blue by visiting the city in the south and its museum (don't forget the gift shop).<br /><br />Did you receive the newsletter we sent out earlier this week? </div>
<div>
Missed it? No worries. <a href="http://eepurl.com/bLQWBH" target="_blank">Click here</a> to read it online (or <a href="http://eepurl.com/bLzl4v" target="_blank">here </a>for the Dutch version).<br /><br />We're all for making this the best year yet! Are you in?</div>

<br />
Last Weekend i got to flip through the catalogue of the beautiful exhibition <a href="http://www.bonnefanten.nl/en/exhibitions/program_2015/ceramix_ceramics_and_art_from_rodin_to_schutte" target="_blank">'Ceramix' </a>that's currently on show at the Bonnefantenmuseum in Maastricht.<br />
Looking through the book made me realise i almost forgot to mention that House of Thol is a tiny bit part of the show: For the duration of the Ceramix exhibition, our porcelain tableware 'In the Clouds' is part of the collection of the gift shop of the Bonnefantenmuseum.<br />

<br />
Sadly we didn't have a chance to visit the exhibition ourselves yet, but i hope to be able to schedule a trip to Maastricht somewhere in the next weeks.<br />
<br />
With the catalogue in mind i'd advice anyone with a love for ceramics and art to visit Ceramix before the end of this month.<br />
The exhibition will travel to France later this year: first to Paris this spring, and after that to Sevres.<br />

We almost missed this one.<br />
Or, i guess we did miss it... This publication in Dutch magazine More Than Classic came out last summer, and we only retrieved the hard copy a little while ago, even though the editor so kindly sent it to our studio.<br />
<br />
Too bad we didn't get to give it the proper attention when the magazine was in stores.<br />
We're still pretty happy to be mentioned though!J.http://www.blogger.com/profile/11833049006057342178noreply@blogger.com0
