MNO
The exhibition at gallery Ron mandos in 1998 was the start of the alliance of Ben Oostrum with Jan Melis. MNO was founded not much later and as MNO, Ben and Jan worked on product and interior design, both on their own initiative and under commission. This resulted in the mno collection of interior products, including furniture, lighting and accessories.
In 2005 after several years of successful partnership MNO broke up. Jan started “Jan Melis, product and interior design” and Ben founded “Boo | ben oostrum ontwerpt”.
