The interior and colour workshop demonstrates that your interior doesn’t need to stay the same for years and that with a few simple changes, you can give your space a different look & feel. He shows how to work with the layout of your living room, dining room, bedroom, or kitchen and how to combine colors instead of painting everything in RAL9010.

What are the dos & don’ts, and how can you rearrange your interior whether you live in a big or small space? These questions will all be answered, and you also have a chance to win a signed book by Theo-Bert, which will be raffled at both sessions!

Alexander Girard's Wooden Dolls are a large family of wooden figures representing people and animals. Girard designed them in 1952 for his own use as decorative objects in his home in Santa Fe. These originals, part of the Girard legacy managed by the Vitra Design Museum, served as models for the current reissues. The Wooden Dolls are exact replicas of the originals by Alexander Girard and are still handcrafted and hand painted. Even though the differences between them are very slight, each wooden figure is a unique, individual object, literally one of a kind.

Create your own original Wooden Doll by painting a blank version according to your own ideas and take home a unique piece.

- Material: solid spruce wood
- Wood origin: silver fir (Abies alba) from Western Europe and/or Poland
- Maximum participants: 10 per workshop, registration is on a first-come, first-served basis
- Cost: € 25 per person, payable at the start of the workshop (one Wooden Doll per participant)
