Made by MENDO
About the booksWho will recognize a great book better than a bookstore? A bookstore run by graphic designers. Here’s why: at MENDO we get market feedback seven days a week, we are blessed to be surrounded by a bunch of talented, inspiring people – photographers, writers and publishers – and after being a bookstore for more than 15 years, we can easily say we know what book aficionados are looking for. Don’t you agree that initiating, creating and realizing jaw-dropping books now, only comes natural?
A MENDO publication is a well-designed book with visually stunning creative content, browsed by people to be amazed and inspired. The subject-matter is one of our pre-defined curated categories, fashion, photography, interior, sport, lifestyle, food and traveling. In general, a MENDO book is a piece of furniture in itself.
A Design Academy Eindhoven graduate, Osiris Hertman (1972) has proven himself to be an all-round and well respected designer, one of the best in the Netherlands, according to Eric Kuster. In the early stages of his career it were influencers like Lidewij Edelkoort, Marcel Wanders and Ulf Moritz, who inspired him to think freely about color, shape and space. It all had impact on Hertman, who eventually evolved to become the versatile craftsman he is today.
Did we mention it was actually Osiris Hertman who designed the MENDO x Osiris bookstand, that comes in Grey Steel and Black Steel?
