Fundraising campaign for Greenpeace

By:  January 10, 2018 Categories: 

The Netherlands is one of the richest countries in the world. So it comes as no surprise that the answer to the question ‘what do you want for Christmas’ is nine out of ten times: ‘nothing’ (‘Niks’). That’s why KesselsKramer came up with a solution for this problem. For Greenpeace we designed the ideal gift for everyone who already has ‘everything’: nothing. Meaning, a nice box that literally has nothing in it. It’s a symbolic gift that proceeds to the restoration of the sustainable balance between humans and the environment. A win-win-situation for both the giver and the lucky gifted. And it even fits through the mailbox.

‘Nothing’ is available in different sizes such as ‘three times nothing’ and ‘totally northing’ at greenpeace.nl/niks

The Path and Meaning

“We walk down the path in Xikeng.” Three years ago, I started a note with that sentence. We visited a row of villages in the south of Zhejiang, and Xikeng (西坑) was at the end of the day — the least touristified town of them all. The village had dozens of old buildings, sliced by […]

Kunshan Diorama

Today, I’m visiting Zhengyi Old Street (正仪老街) in Kunshan — a city wedged in between Suzhou and Shanghai. This old street is a leftover slice in between other parts properly planned by the city. On the horizon, I can see construction cranes, as if they are threatening the area; ‘we are coming to you next’. […]
