Very happy to introduce @match_services a collaborative graphic design and art direction studio created together with my daughter @umaparis
We work with individuals, brands and institutions to create thoughtful identities, publications and experiences from large-scale projects to smaller socially engaged initiatives. Inclusion, research and dialogue are at the core of our practice as we believe that meaningful design comes from clarity and curiosity.
Stay tuned!

Tim Blanks in conversation with Raf Simons and Pieter Mulier in Self Service 63, F/W 2025.
4x4 - A brilliant new zine by Interlude (incl. @umaparis ) The first two issues available from Ryder Books.
4x4 is quarterly (ofcourse!). Four contributors each time - writers, artists, designers. A quiet dialogue: sometimes meeting, sometimes moving apart. Four corners, one whole.

We know he likes his bass, but this time we also asked him to dive into the middle and top notes to craft this fragrant playlist for us. Based on his perfume Mistpouffer, this ozonic playlist uncovers some woody & earthy tracks from Sakamoto to Sinephro.
He never leaves us without a fun fact : ‘Horsin Around!’ by BFTT is based on a sample from the Prefab Sprout song with the same title taken from their 1986 debut album ‘Steve McQueen’.
Thank you Magnus @naddermier for this week’s Fragrantica FM playlist>link in bio
