In 1993, Renny Ramakers and Gijs Bakker founded Droog to promote contemporary Dutch design. The initiators had selected work by young Dutch designers in which they recognised a new trend that combined the reuse of everyday objects with a down-to-earth mentality. In 1996 Thonik designed the catalogue.Items from the Droog collection were photographed in the designers’ home. This witty intervention, in line with the spirit of the collection, changes their content from museum objects to utensils, and creates a visual narrative throughout the book.
