Lawyer Inez Weski was interviewed for the latest issue of OOG, magazine of the Rijksmuseum, on the subject of beauty and art. Weski is not only well known for her complex and high profile cases, but also for her (dark) appearance. Jaap Scheeren made ultimate use of unconventional lighting to capture this particular atmosphere in the portraits as well as in the still picture of her office.

For this week’s cover of the VPRO magazine Krista van der Niet was asked to illustrate the main feature on communicating with animals. The story is about a course people can take to get to know their pets through telepathy in order to solve behavioral problems. Obviously, the subject was right up Krista’s street and resulted in this witty image.

Commissioned by Karin An Rijlaarsdam (Cloud 9 interior design), Ingmar Swalue photographed Happy VIP, the VIP Lounge of the Dutch Pavilion Happy Street at World Expo Shanghai 2010.
The festive and outgoing character of Happy Street and the shape of the VIP building itself, resembling a huge golden crown, inspired Karin to design the interior of the VIP lounge like a ‘happy crown’. She has created an extravagant and joyful environment, nearly evoking an overdose of happiness and glitter. Ingmar managed to capture this atmosphere in his series of pictures accompanying the press release.
