Last year was amazing! We traveled a lot, saw beautiful places, met inspiring people and and were fortunate enough to share some lovely stories thru Another Something. We hope you’ve enjoyed it. We did!
The year is coming to an end and we are having a little focus time on some clients to finish the business for this year, and start some new for the coming year. So no updates here until the end of the year…
Happy holidays and a wonderful new year! We’ll be back in 2012.

We’re back! Thanks to Wilco for his wordpress coding and his ideas on moving Another Something forward making it a more visual attractive publication.
We didn’t change a lot, but really wanted to give more attention to the images, so the center column got bigger, the left column clearer and the right column a mix of our friendly association (the people and brands we support), special features, the images we ffffound and the svpply’s we like.
We changed the name to Another Something & Company, since Another Something is almost ruling our business at Another Company. And for the time being Another Shop went offline but will come back as an integrated shop in Another Something & Company. Stay tuned on that one and enjoy the new Another Something & Co.

I’ve made a selection of 20 pictures to highlights a few moments we’d love to share. Enjoy after the click >

A little update on our Samsung Galaxy Tab project. In the night from Thursday to Friday last week I took the car, together with Haim, to head east and find some good spots for our Ideas in Motion project. Scrolling on Google Maps the day before, I found some ‘holes in the ground, some chalk mines in the western part of Germany that could possibly fit our idea. It was quite a guess since I’ve never been there, but it worked out very well. Climbing over some fences and ignoring ‘Lebensgefahr’ warning signs we’ve found some amazing spots. It felt like outer space! Huge cars passing by, strange light, and dazzling depths… At this moment we’re stitching the images into one big 360º image for our Layar app on Android. Stay tuned…

For Ideas in Movement I was invited to start an experiment with the Samsung Galaxy Tab. I asked Hugo, Raymond and Mathijs to join me to create some kind of ultimate digital escape. Based on augmented reality you will dive into the silent and serene woods where strange things can happen.
For this experiment we are now looking for abandoned mines and hills with pinewoods. Think Allice in Wonderland… If you know any place like that, somewhere close to the Netherlands, please let me know.

Next week I will start an experiment in Another Galaxy. Stay tuned…

Proud to be part of this newcomer we present you the new dutch knitwear label Knit-ted. Knit-ted launches its first collection with high-quality knitwear basics that are comfortable, stylish and timeless, with subtle, surprising details.

Every step we take is a step forward, and every step we remember is one of substance. In our life there are events, people and belongings that will change us… things that at first glance aren’t that special, but get meaning when we realize how we got there and what function it wears in our cycle of life. It makes us realize that everything around us at this very moment could make the change we are looking for. It makes us realize that these moments are the timeless and pure essence of being. “When time stops, life begins”

I was off for a few days, enjoying the summer at the Dutch waterside and trying to relax after weeks of hard work. In the coming days I will post about a beautiful book I’ve received by the Dutch upcoming photographer Valentina Vos; I will post about some new e-bay finds (a vintage 60′s Tudor including) and we will launch the new Anothershop, coded by Stuart Hobday, with some very nice new stuff in there as well. Stay tuned…

Last week Stuart Hobday from Executive Edits interviewed me about Anothercompany, about branding and the way we work with clients. Thank you Stuart – it was very refreshing to answer your questions. Read the interview here >

While still in Morocco, still offline, still traveling around with my lovely girl and my little boy and celebrating my birthday today, I just found one tiny hotspot to do one Anothersomething post to give you a glimpse of this wonderful trip.
Traveling around between cities, mountains and deserts I found a dose of inspiration in the colors, the scents, the people and their shops and the fabrics which is really inexhaustible. The strange little boutiques with the goods piled up until the roof, packed with strange products, secret herbs, exotic animal hides and tools you never saw before… When I’m back I’ll definitely share more of this wonderful country. To be continued…

Last weeks Jonathan Looman (aka Lowman) made some more or less necessary changes to Anothersomething. One of them was to make the special features more special by changing the layout into something more magazine-like.
And since we’re so happy with that we invited some friends to start participating in Anothersomething, in the special features, to start with Hugo Verweij.

Hugo Verweij runs his own blog called Everyday Listening were he ‘collects inspiring and remarkable sound art and creative sound design projects, installations, reviews of urban soundscapes, places, contemporary or experimental, mostly electronic music.’
He inspired me for the past 20 years, showed me new music, guided me from unknown and abstract electronic artists to melancholic tunes and I’m very happy to welcome him at Anothersomething. Enjoy Another Sound!
