But instead of just waiting around, there was work to be done! In a few days\u2019 time, we have set up a web shop and decided that, in line with the takeaway service we have developed for the restaurant, we want to do something similar for the shop. As the restaurant is closed at the moment and has lots of windows, we have used it to create window displays. Our products hanging and standing in these displays each have a number that you can make a note of and quote in a call or an e-mail so that you can then collect your order from the counter (we also supply and send via the web shop). Collecting in person is now also no longer possible, so we now deliver to your door, preferably not too far away!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The counter where your order is processed is on exactly the opposite side of the building to the FRIET and take away (facing the inner street, opposite the door to the showroom and shop). We did consider having the shop employees working in the windows, but during regular shop opening hours they usually work in the office. So, when you call to place your order, there is a good chance you will see one of our colleagues nipping over the street to process your order or deliver it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1536\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/012_overview.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-52504\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/012_overview.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/012_overview-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/012_overview-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/012_overview-700x467.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Window shopping, pick a number, window dressing, kado to go, shopping out of the box; we considered them all. But the choice has fallen on EEK AWAY, without a \u2018t\u2019. Alongside the takeaway, where we offer all kinds of other dishes besides fries, is the James Cauty container. So, you can view art and window shop at any time of night or day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">One of the ladies from the restaurant mentioned that we now actually have just about everything outside that would normally be inside: design, art, antiques and food. It is all keeping us very busy, but otherwise we would have nothing to do. We now have an old-fashioned and newfangled concept thanks to Corona!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li

The most significant factor in Eek's career has been the creation of a world that embodies the entire process, from idea to consumer. This has proved to be an exceptional way of producing since it is quite rare to both design and produce furniture 'under the same roof' in countries with high labour costs. Each product is designed with a focus on the material, techniques and craftsmanship required to make it. In 2010, Piet Hein Eek moved his company from Geldrop to a former Philips factory in Eindhoven. The most important part of the company is the production facility (wood, metal, ceramics upholstery and cartonnage) which is located in the heart of the building. The transparency of the building gives visitors insight into the whole production process. The concept of offering a total experience starts with the showroom and the production processes but also includes a restaurant, an art gallery, rented studios, a chip shop, a hairdresser and from October 2020 there will also be a hotel. Eek has worked together with architect Iggie Dekkers since 2015, designing a range of houses and undertaking architectural redevelopments and other construction projects. Eek has created his own world which has developed into an important cultural hub in the city of Eindhoven; a dynamic centre where creativity, production and sales go hand in hand.","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/actueel\/winkel-dicht-eek-away#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"en-US","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/actueel\/winkel-dicht-eek-away"]}]},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/actueel\/winkel-dicht-eek-away#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/012_overview.jpg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/012_overview.jpg","width":1536,"height":1024},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/actueel\/winkel-dicht-eek-away#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/en"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"EEK AWAY and webshop"}]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/#website","url":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/","name":"PIET HEIN EEK","description":"","publisher":{"@id":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/#organization"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/?s={search_term_string}"},"query-input":{"@type":"PropertyValueSpecification","valueRequired":true,"valueName":"search_term_string"}}],"inLanguage":"en-US"},{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/#organization","name":"PIET HEIN EEK","url":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/","url":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/PIET_HEIN_EEK_LOGO_2021.svg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/PIET_HEIN_EEK_LOGO_2021.svg","caption":"PIET HEIN EEK"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/"},"sameAs":["https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/PietHeinEek\/","https:\/\/x.com\/pietheineek","https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/piet_hein_eek\/","https:\/\/nl.pinterest.com\/pietheineek\/"]},{"@type":"Person","@id":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/#\/schema\/person\/6c54776f54ab527a3ffd03f27f5e82c0","name":"Pim","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/57b1041592b59b0369788153498ad254f2b8766a7b6338d2de49e7a9057c03dd?s=96&d=mm&r=g","url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/57b1041592b59b0369788153498ad254f2b8766a7b6338d2de49e7a9057c03dd?s=96&d=mm&r=g","contentUrl":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/57b1041592b59b0369788153498ad254f2b8766a7b6338d2de49e7a9057c03dd?s=96&d=mm&r=g","caption":"Pim"},"sameAs":["http:\/\/www.pietheineek.nl"]}]}},"author_meta":{"display_name":"Pim","author_link":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/en\/author\/pim"},"featured_img":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/012_overview-300x200.jpg","coauthors":[],"tax_additional":{"categories":{"linked":["<a href=\"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/en\/news\" class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">Current<\/a>"],"unlinked":["<span class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">Current<\/span>"]}},"comment_count":"0","relative_dates":{"created":"Posted 6 years ago","modified":"Updated 5 years ago"},"absolute_dates":{"created":"Posted on 19-12-2020","modified":"Updated on 18-11-2021"},"absolute_dates_time":{"created":"Posted on 19-12-2020 11:47","modified":"Updated on 18-11-2021 09:20"},"featured_img_caption":"","series_order":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52537","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=52537"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52537\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":52538,"href":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52537\/revisions\/52538"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/52505"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=52537"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=52537"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=52537"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
