Tree Weekend does not show final products of individual design processes. The Norwegian designer Kim Hiørthoy rather attempts to capture the brief moments in which ideas are created. Photographs, hand drawings and computer graphics from very diverse disciplines brought back to their core - from roughly sketched to elaborately presented. The result has more resemblance to a film than to a book, happens with serious playfulness and only to the extent which is needed to increase one´s awareness of everyday images, processes and language which often are the key to good design. Kim Hiørthoy's ideas are born on shaky ground, not in a safe haven. That´s why Tree Weekend is an amusingly-calculated and interdisciplinary flood of fragile moments and images somewhere between modern HipHop graphics, sketch book entries, photo files, kindergarten games and the preparation of a potato soup.

This review is from: Tree Weekend (Paperback)
For music-heads Norwegian Kim Hiorthøy is probably best known for the cover design for the Rune Grammofon label and videos and covers for the Motorpsycho band. "Tree Weekend" is a beautiful full-colour book with photos, sketches and other graphics. Playful and highly personal indeed. Recommended.
