Noud Sleumer is a designer and artist. But he does not so much design new things. He deconstructs and unravels existing, often everyday objects, products and systems, in order to get to the core. His designs actually visualize a story. They form a way to address social themes – large and small – in a pleasant but also stimulating way and to make us think.
