'No Windmills, Cheese or Tulips'

The Netherlands has a lot more to offer than windmills, cheese and tulips. Design, for instance. No matter how small the Netherlands may be, it still ranks fourth on the list of major design countries. All over the World, Dutch designers are renowned for their conceptual abilities and their ability to translate these concepts into designs that are suitable for mass production. ‘No Windmills, Cheese or Tulips’ puts work on display that is typical of this Dutch design mentality.

NWCOT group pictureAt the Tokyo Design Week 2007 in Japan, ‘No Windmills, Cheese or Tulips’ will present 21 works by 19 designers from Eindhoven, Amsterdam and Rotterdam. The objects vary from furniture and interior accessories to household items and jewellery, and will be presented as a still life, like those familiar to us from the ‘old masters’. In short: contemporary design from the Netherlands on display in a classically Dutch way.
