Blog/Wonder Years

Published by ROMA Publications and ArtEZ Press on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the Werkplaats Typografie, Wonder Years: Werkplaats Typografie 1998-2008 is a record of work made by over fifty participants to the Werkplaats Typografie program. Beyond an anthology, the archive represented here is an interpretation of a design school history, compiling its items according to a rather subjective, incomplete and inimitable set of entries. The 10 years story of the Werkplaats Typografie is narrated by a group of current participants, intersected by annotations, voice over and parallel readings from Stuart Bailey, Uta Eisenreich, Paul Elliman, Raimundas Malasauskas, Karel Martens, Armand Mevis and Willem Oorebeek.

Wonder Years can be purchased directly from the Werkplaats Typografie or pre-ordered from Stand Up Comedy in the US.

After working there for several years, I became co-creative director with Jacques Koeweiden. Currently, I am working as Design Director at Nike Europe in The Netherlands.
