Us & the World - a map

still from our website - click for interactive version.

A little over a year ago we launched our first product Waterworks, and now there are House of Thol stockists in The Netherlands, Belgium, Sweden and the UK.
To keep track of those stockists and to make it easier for you to see what store is closest to you, we used the tool mapbuildr to create the lovely map pictured above.

For an interactive version and a list of stockists, check out this page on our website.

Webshop / Webwinkel

Over the past months we've been quietly working on the design and content of our webshop.
We enlarged the images of the products, removed distractions and banners, and most importantly: we took the time to make the shop completely bilingual.

Notice the little flags in the top-right corner, next to the shopping cart?
We've set the standard language of the shop to Dutch, adjust it to English by clicking the British flag.

And check out this flashy feature: when rolling over the images the name and price of the item magically appears.

We also uploaded many publications from the last years featuring House of Thol. All media can be found in the media-section.

And last but not least: we've added a lot of new unique Neotribal necklaces to the inventory.

The webshop will remain work-in-progress, feel free to let us know what we can improve.
Next up: the website...

Lovely Blog about Waterworks

Last week we were surprised by a small message in our mailbox from Joyce from design and fashion blog MyDubio.
Joyce bought a Waterworks-set a while ago and after testing it thoroughly and keeping her plants happy and healthy, she decided to write this lovely post.
As you can see in the preview she didn't just write about Waterworks, she also shot some amazing photographs.
