Heury & Heury is a French design studio (and a brother / sister collective) – and their accomplishments are what most of us – still consider dreams.

1. Break the rules
2. Do what you love
3. Don’t compare to others
_______
Their approach is minimalist – reductionist in fact. Keep only what is essential. B&Wth is a perfect example (in 3 models)!



_______
They self-publish a magazine – aptly titled: Duo: of course right? Worth reading the interviews with Berger & Föhr + Anton & Irene (who were featured on ND).

_______
ndlr: If you want to know more about their collaboration read their Medium intro (if you speak French that is).

Have I got news for you!

_______
I am really pleased to announce the release of two new vintage sections on Netdiver. I compiled all editorials I wrote into a directory (including some interviews I did through the years).
Although written a good while ago – surprised at how relevant these are still today.

Editorials. Design topics or issues that have impacted me or our creative industry..
Over 50 articles.
_______
Sometime ago – someone inquired about the old news archives – the ones that were static – lol. Yep from 98-08 Netdiver was hand-coded.
It took longer than I thought the re-aggregate the content into our site design – but all done now.. and online. A legacy to the early web.
I am in the midst of revisiting links (years 04-08 to do) so – never mind broken links – the content is enough. Follow our web history from the very beginning..

Netdiver static. Walk down memory lane: archived news in design from 1998-2008.
Start beginning
Start in 2008
