ic! meets bo van melskens

many berliners are familiar with Bo Van Melskens, the label of danish-born, berlin-based, and internationally renowned storyteller sarah elbo (and her mysterious muse/collaborator: bo). when it's summer in berlin the art scene sizzles, and this season these two screwless names have come together to craft 11 variations on 3 soft, round & luxurious new shapes, as well as a project to launch them.

inspired by the frames, we've created a short animated movie in the unmistakable style of Bo Van Melskens. this movie sheds some light on the history of the designer's concept, as well as being the latest installment in the continuing cautionary-tale of bo.
