Shake It! shows children how to become cocktail shakers and gives recipes for alcohol free cocktails. The book has a wild, colourful design to appeal to children between the ages of 10 and 15. In the first part of the book, cocktail shaker Timo teaches his group of Junior Master Shakers how to make the best cocktails. Action photos show how things work, and the design is scrapbook-like. After this mini course, Shake it! continues with the cocktail recipes. Each recipe fills a page or spread with its own look and feel. The photos of the cocktails and the action photos were taken during a two-day photo shoot on location.

What: theatre and costume design  | Client: Theatre design school assignment
Final assignment of the second year of theatre design school. Students had to pick an existing play, opera or other performance and show all the scenes in models scale pieces of scenery and costume design sketches. Sabine chose Alice in Wonderland and translated it to the underwater world. Thus, Alice Autumns into the water instead of down the rabbit hole, the Cheshire cat is personified by a school of herring and the rabbit is a penguin.  

Above water, the world is a warm yellow, below the surface the transparent plastic gives it a cool blue shade. The fluorescent colours of the characters clearly stick out against this blue underwater world.

Sunset Boulevard

What: theatre and costume design | Client: Theatre design school assignment
Sabine made the costumes and, together with a classmate, the model scale pieces of scenery for the musical Sunset Boulevard. The piece is set in the forties. Actress Norma was famous in the twenties and still dwells… in that era. Her butler, who is a great admirer, does not spoil her delusion that she is still adored and admired by the public.

Norma’s costumes are designed in black and white and art deco style, referring to the twenties. All the other designs are in color to represent the forties. The character Joe plays a double role: he hides for the police inside Norma’s house. Here his costumes are getting more black and white, as he plays along with Norma’s fantasies about the twenties to win her sympathy. When he is with his friends outside, he wears colored clothes that match the reality of the present.

Assignment in the first year of theatre design school. The costume designs for the Swan Lake had to be based on a period between 1700 and 1800. Sabine chose the years 1775 – 1785, which were marked by oriental influences. Students were asked to make mood boards and sketches to practice and stimulate their… creativity. The best ideas were chosen and worked out in detail. In their designs, students had to take into account the family relationships between the characters. For example: the costumes of a mother and her son had to show certain similarities.
