Moments of Ingenuity with Oiva Toikka at Dutch Design Week.m4v

I was running late, as usual, when I made it into the Oiva Toikka art and design exhibition currently on in the Ketelhuis at Strijp-S, looking for Oiva himself. I couldn't spot the eighty year old professor amongst the hoards, and so -- although despondent, I exalted in the beautiful works (even though he has been known to say it's work bordering on bad taste, I certainly disagree!) on display to celebrate 50 years as a designer with Ittala. But then I saw a fellow journalist, Anniina Koivu with an entourage of very attentive ladies. Oiva was chatting away somewhere in amongst the crowd, so I latched on and this is the result. Enjoy -- I certainly did. For more stories like this, visit http://thedossier.nl
