“I love the tools made for mechanics. I stop by the windows of hardware stores. If I could only find an excuse to buy many more of them than I have already bought on the mere pretence that I might have some use for them! The are so beautiful, so simple and plain and strait to their meaning. There is no “Art” about them, they have not been made beautiful, they are beautiful.”

To start, I would like to introduce the KIOSK team and participants, these are friends who have all helped the shop for limited funds or for free since we started in December 2005. Ross Menuez (www.salvorprojects.com) does all the graphics and shop design with us, photographer Keetja Allard (www.keetjaallard.com) provides constant good input, the writer Yuki Matsuo handles the shop and goods from Japan, Marco Romeny, my husband, does everything from programming to mopping, Fran Pollitt shoots all the studio shots of the products (www.francespollitt.com), famous Ega Hiroshi is our Tokyo contact, the graphic designer Judith Rytz is our Stockholm help for Sweden, Mau and Tony (www.dfcasa.com) put us up in Mexico City and are our Mexico team, friends Kirsty and Burkhard hosted us in Berlin and provided infinite advice, guidance and opinion on the German goods, Annette and Oliver have a brilliant shop named Kwikshop in Berlin (www.kwikshop.de), they are our German team. I’m the shopkeeper, buyer, researcher, cleaning lady, etc etc. So you see, KIOSK is a bunch of people making this collection of goods happen.
