Minimalissimo Weekly Edit
Minimalissimo in Design
Hello. I hope you've had a good week. I'd like to say I am now out of office, but I suppose not. I will however, be taking it simple over the (uneventful) holidays, quietly working away on a couple of projects like the photo book and site improvements, but generally easing off a little. Given the year that has unfolded, I think we all deserve some of that. I'll maybe leave the reflective newsletter update to next week, and keep this one nice and light.
For all other projects we're working on, you can see updates in our Sync, which you'll get access to by becoming a member.
Our features over the past week include a close look at Boem Studio's beautiful matte-black pocket knife design. We visit San Sebastian in Spain to step inside the simple, spacious, and serene SAN House, and in our featured mood we explore some audio devices off the back of Apple's AirPods Max release. Have a read, take it slow, and enjoy your Sunday.
— Carl Barenbrug, Creative Director
Features
Boem Knife
The sleek, matte-black form of the Boem knife is reminiscent of the earliest folding knives with their typical blade shapes and rounded handles. The push button and Virobloc locking system makes the knife very easy to use even with one hand.
SAN House
The philosophy of SAN House was simple: provide a blank canvas to highlight the original structure. The resulting design is a perfect balance of tradition, modern design, and regional architecture.

The peculiar Between Two White Walls project wears its heart at its sleeve with its unequivocal description as title. Corpo Atelier is the responsible party for the undeniably minimalist dwelling, an amalgamation of Portuguese contemporary aesthetics with long-established practices.
