Face-to-face a new designer's profile with Jurianne Matter

Today we are introducing our last designer's profile for this year, Jurianne Matter who's also a personal friend of Irene. A creater of beautiful paper designs, she has a lovely home and it's all ready for Christmas! You will see decorations made by Jurianne herself so let's all read her story here.

We thank Marjon and Sandra for their lovely contributions of designer profiles this year. We are absolutely grateful having friends all over the world that keeps us connected. Makes the world into a smaller place don't you think? We are looking forward to 2013 for more interviews and pictures for this column.

NEW: Unstationary by ontwerpduo

{image by Jurianne Matter}

Papers, soft colors and simple designs, what's not to love everything about Unstationary by Ontwerpduo. Starting our own stationary line has always been in the works here at Bloesem, and seeing great products like these makes us want to work on our line even more.

The first thing that comes to mind when I see grid paper is math class in high school. Countless doodles and drawings on them when I should be writing down numbers and equations. What about you? A familiar feeling and I love the simplicity of the grid design for note pads and little cards for little messages.

Check out their collection of work on their website. Take a look at the 'Light Forest' which to me is almost dream-like.   [CONTINUE READING]
