3 Things That I Would Like to Have from Mike and Maaike

I'm eye-ing Mike and Maaike's design for my future study.'> and there's these 3 things that I would really like to have...

The first thing that I would like to have from Mike & Maaike is the Juxtaposed: religion bookshelf for their client Blankblank. In limited edition of 50 from reclaimed hardwood, this true to form + function bookshelf came in 36" W x 5" H x 8" D.

5,084,000,000 people, 5,360 pages, 3,700 years, 243 countries, 7 books, and 1 shelf. For the first time, the world's most influential religious texts are brought together and presented on the same level, their coexistence acknowledged and celebrated.
Mike and Maaike is an industrial design studio. A unique collaboration between Maaike Evers, a Dutch & Mike Simonian, a Californian. They take an experimental approach to design, creating progressive ideas and unexpected solutions for products, furniture, wearables, environments, and vehicles. Maaike Evers is Dutch, Mike Simonian, Californian.


The next thing that on my list is Mike & Maaike soft laptop computer accessories designed for home user. These I think, most of you would love it! .'>

Most laptop cases & accessories are designed for the business traveller but Mike and Maaike's design for Belkin focused on challenges on using laptop at home in a variety of locations and postures which include protection, transportation, comfortability and color for home user.


The third one that i would like to have is The Mute Chair that Mike and Maaike designed for Council. The Mute Chair reflecting its name is designed to represent serenity and calm.
