Marian Bantjes on Niessen & De Vries in the Guardian: Richard Niessen and Esther de Vries are Dutch designers and their work is really surprising and modern. They use a lot of geometric shapes and experiment with printing techniques. It's the kind of work that makes you pay attention: you can't glance at it, think "I get it" and move on. Sometimes you need to engage with it physically: they made a catalogue for an exhibition about nests and there were ways you could take the book apart and make a nest. It gives me a feeling of great optimism that there are people doing work like this.I think sheer imagination is relatively rare. A lot of very good graphic design is brilliant or clever or impactful – but not always delightful.Marian Bantjes's clients have included Wallpaper, the New York Times and the Guardian.

"Niessen & de Vries designed a special box for the drawing and the etching of Adam and Eve by Rembrandt van Rijn (1638).
It was made in collaboration with Raf Snippe for the Prentenkabinet of the University of Leiden. The box brings together the forestudy and the etching in which Rembrandt depicts Adam and Eve in an unorthodox way. The designers focussed on the mirroring image of the etching technique and the ambiguous scene using the two-part typeface Bifur (1929) by A.M. Cassandre in contrary relief, with parts in apple wood. The box with the art works is now shown in a small exhibition in University in Leiden."
