FINISHED HOME.

In modern architecture a lot of things are pre destined. The architect

decides the place of the walls, bathroom, kitchen, windows, radiators

and plugs. Therefore, the architect also desides were your bed will be,

or your dining table. Or where you will put your phone charger.

Is this bad? Is this good? Some times an architect is well qualified to

make these kind of decisions and to take them of your shoulders.

I developed the ‘finished home’. An appartment where everything you

need is already there when you come in, and you will never have to buy

something new.

I designed all the 273 different objects myself in a CAD program

and placed them in a booklet, so you can quickly organise your stuff,

because everything has got it’s own place.

next page> In the book are the objects with their number and location.

There is also a map attached to the book, so you can quickly find the

place in your appartment. On the floor, tables, closets etc. are also

imprints and numbers of the objects, so you know you can put them

there. For example, the dining table is number 124.

THE BLUE HOUSE.

We were given the assignment to present a book ‘portraits of people

trough their objects’ inside a house. I wanted to make an object out of

the house itself, to create a new relationship with the people entering

the house.

PORTRAITS OF PEOPLE TROUGH THEIR OBJECTS.

Trough a book we tried to make portraits of people trough their

objects. It was a group effort, and my role was to interview all the

people and take the pictures.

FRITS WAVES GOODBYE.

I was asked to come up with a concept for the graduation ceremony

of the Design Academy. I thought the things you would miss about the

school were the beautifull people you saw everyday, like the concierge

Frits and the textile instructor Wilma.

next page> I put the whole budget in a farewell gift. A book with the

whole staff of the Design Academy waving goodbye, accompanied

with a farewell speach. Henk the computer guy: ‘Allways check your

settings and make something nice out of it.’

SMOKING KILLS

Some sigarettes are worth it dying 28 minutes earlier for. I wanted to

map out if smoking could actually be worth it.

THE ORIGIN OF CUP.

An assignment about ‘evolution’ made me think about Darwin and all

the disbelieve his theory gets. By making 300 coffee cups that slowly

evolve from a cup without an ear to a cup with an ear, I wanted to

make Darwin’s theory on evolution visual.

As a product in society, you also have to be the fittest to survive, there-

fore, if a cup could multiply itself, it would evolve into a fitter specie.

This range of cups has been in two exhibitions and is now on sale in a

Design shop in eindhoven. You can choose your own set of 5 cups.

WHAT IS THE PRODUCT OF A LIFE?

I was inspired by all the waist a life produces, so I tried illustrating

that by drawing a picture of a pencil with that same pencil, then

sharpen it, and draw the pencil again, untill it’s too small and

useless. I did this with a markerpen, a fineliner, a painttube, a

ballpoint and an inkpot.

On the end I wanted to measure the ‘product of a pencils life’

more accurate and decided to make the pencil-drawing-machine

to measure the length of a line you can draw with one pencil.

Nobody really got the filosophical meaning of it, but everybody

thought it was very pretty.

ATTENTION PLEASE, THIS IS IMPORTANT

DAS KIND. | 2008-2011 (and still going on)

We (me and my brother: Rik Eysink Smeets) take pictures on party’s

and than we put them on the website, with a short text. For free drinks

and eternal glory. Over time it also became a celebration of the

female beauty.

We did a lot of party’s, expositions and other stuff. In total we had

five photographers working for us, but 99 percent of the pictures are

taken by me and my brother. Also all the pictures you will see in this

portfolio were taken by me.

EXHIBITION DOORTJE.

Our first exposition was in a vintage clothing shop called Doortje and

we exposed our pictures and our new T-shirts. The shirts were hand-

painted and part of a big frame.

INTERNET PARTY.

Because we had a new website, we wanted to give a ‘launchparty’. And

because it was the launchparty of the website, we wanted to give an

online party. So we created a virtual dancingroom, smokingroom and

toilet, some music, a chatroom and some balloons and cheese and the

party could begin.

EXHIBITION TOILET POETRY.

I collect toilet notes. Notes people put up in toilets to let people know

they shouldn’t make a mess, leave the toilet seat up or poo on the

floor.

During the exhibition I got really emotional. I never made something

that everybody loved so much.
