- Ten&Don Architype Wallpapers (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
- Ten&Don, two design-cowboys, collaborated on a wallpaper exclusively for men. Seen from a distance it radiates a romantic and nostalgic feeling.
However, when you look more closely this wallpaper turns out to be for adult boys only...
There are two wallpapers already; Cum&Join Cowboy wallpaper and the just released Men in Suit (I Love My Boss) wallpaper.

- Items is the leading Dutch magazine on design and related fields. An important issue in styling the magazine is the specific character of the feature articles. By using typefaces from different type desingers in the world, the articles acquire a personal feel and flavour. In this way, the whole magazine becomes a stage, mirroring the current state of affairs in type design. The cover always shows a portrait, the particular style varies every issue.
