iwishicoulddescribeittoyoubetter
iwishicoulddescribeittoyoubetter is an archive of possibilities. Less a collective, design studio or fixed group, but the place of perchance running into one another, where encounters are created and some relationships last, others to which we wave warmly in retrospect. The projects, blog entries and works presented at left have become what may be an idealistic cloud of tags and labels that have in previous manifestations been difficult to categorise, name and place. The ambivalence as such is noted and taken, yet please take that as possibility -yes, possibility- to wander, link through, come back and find threads between the works, ideas and people... as we have.
