We organised several diners in the workshop with Sergio Herman for the first time during the Dutch Design Week in 2018. These were, just like the last edition, unforgettable. But this piece is not about that. I worked with Jeroen for the first time during these diners. He is a kind of culinary-organiser, jack-of-all-trades and handy in every sense of the word. So handy, in fact, that he was the only one to make anything out of the diners. So it seems, in any case. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jeroen put us in touch with Bob Goevaers, who was then, and still is, involved in the redevelopment of Strijp-T, the former Philips industrial site located next to Strijp-R. It is also the site of the old Philips glass laboratory. Jeroen asked whether we would like to come and take away all the stuff that would otherwise have been thrown away. We took away glass of all kinds, in all shapes and sizes, and right at the last minute we also decided to take the old glass-sawing machine. Bob was fine with it. He wouldn\u2019t get that much for selling it anyway, and if we were happy with it and were willing to do something in return, it was OK (this is reasoned from my own perspective). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
