Dr. Beyk

Funny. Dr. Beyk, the bike repair man :-)

Brewery Badvertising

"Op een been kan je niet staan" is the dutch expression. It means: "You can't stand on one leg" and it is used to indicate you need two objects instead of one. This ad says: "If only I had two legs, because I can't stand on one". And it's about a brewery?

Slut hair

This is the name of a real estate agency in Amstelveen. Dutch for Slut Hair. tempting ej?

Woordgrap: Gloednieuws!

Dear God

http://www.dear-god.net/

A blog for praying. In a hip, colorful 80's design. Religion is back! And he's cool! Your messages are directly beamed to god! Who knows he'll start talking back sometime :-) Strange thing that people feel the need to share something so personal as prayer. It is commonly known that religion flourishes in times of economical downfall. So this should work well now. Religion is scary shit sometimes.

Gadget: Hits from Arabia

I bought this cool gadget in Marokko (at the shop from my previous post!) for € 0,10....

flashy shirts

Why not just 'design'? Does a word joke make you look more creative? Will a customer think: Well this company can make this very creative word joke. They will probably also bring me a very hip and creative t-shirt design!"? It's funny, the things people do to stand out.

Gadget: MARS tape recorder

This is the coolest gadget I have come across lately. It's a very old tape-recorder from the brand MARS. The shop owner and I agreed that it looked like it came out of outer-space. I can imagine an alien listened to music out of his MARS once while cruising through the galaxy. 

Welcome in my shop

Hi there. This is my shop. This shop is my purpose of existence. I see people need goods that I can provide. This is my vision of life. This is my sole way to provide for my family and children. This is a reflection of me. This is who I am as a human being. Take a look, I sell:

- TDK tapes

- Tools

- 'wasknijpers'

- An empty chips package

- A jewelery box

- Knee pads

- A single beach ball racket

and much more beautiful products to serve the planet!

Nouveau collection

Another cool one. Permanent signs that say: 'new collection' :-)

Speed demon

Window shopper

"How can we seduce passers by to come in and try our lenses? I know! Let's put a big rat in the window!" 

I wonder what the story behind this is.  

Sweet World

This is a strong image. I love it. Nicely balanced and clean. No flaws or strange colors. Sweet!

Cheap watches

Only € 12,- for this entire collection of watches! That what I call a bargain! 

Don't fuck with my food

I have a restaurant. Of course I want people to come in and enjoy my food. So I’m thinking, “If I can somehow show the people that pass by how delicious my food is, they will get hungry and come in to order!”. I can understand all this. But it’s a complete mystery for me why This is ALWAYS executed poorly. During my trip to Marokko I also saw this a lot. Is it truly so that these restaurant owners really believe that this generates traffic? And if it does, why do these images look so bad? Doesn’t this work the other way around?
