Construct Me / Droog

“… screws, hinges, nuts, nails, brackets and other hardware extending their original function and character. Like nails that reduce the risk of hitting your finger, two way tie wraps, fancy hinges and screws that smile at you. They give flavour to simple DIY work, review existing furniture and may inspire the carpenter.”

DullTech

“The smart, hassle-free, plug-and-play USB-friendly media player that loops video perfectly on all screens and syncs without problems or cables. And is a lot cheaper than the competition. The DullTech™ Media Player is both a piece of hardware and a performative artwork.”

“When you are not playing a video, and you leave the player on, a custom art work will play on the DullTech™ player! You can read more about it in our collected press.

We see the entire company as an artwork actually, kinda relational aesthetics with awkward self aware neoliberal mannerisms.”
