The new year brings good news for Christien Meindertsma who has been named by a leading newspaper as one of the top ten most interesting young people to watch in the Netherlands this decade. We also talk to Rotterdam Design Prize winner Joost Grootens who like Meindertsma has a modesty that results in quieter more humble work.  Gone are the days of center-stage designers as we usher in more discussion, less brouhaha and a wiser consciousness for Dutch design.  These are going to be interesting times to follow and important ones for our industry.  We hope you enjoy the journey.
