Profile: Victor le Noble + David Heldt
Victor le Noble and David Heldt are designers with green hearts. Ever since the establishment of Tuttobene, the company has acted as the frontrunner of the Sustainable Design movement. All of the designers associated with Tuttobene are of green and fresh calibre; for example, the Groene Honden (Green Dogs) and Maarten Bokkinga, the pages of Interni and EH+I. Their welcome party has been the must-attend event at Salone del Mobile in Milan ever since the very first presentation of Tuttobene in that city. We know from experience that this is no exaggeration.
Company name:
Tuttobene
Company founding date:
2004
Place of business:
Amsterdam
Names of founders:
Victor le Noble & David Heldt

About the company:
Tuttobene presents Design International and focuses on young graphic designers. The work is selected based on its social and ecologically sustainable qualities, innovation and economic potential. To date, our biggest event was a group presentation during the Salone in Milan, but our operations are growing steadily. Design collection, Webshop, other tradeshow presentations, design assignments, design competitions, and so on. It’s getting nicer and nicer all the time.
Current project:
Tuttobene@Salone del Mobile 2010

My big idea:
My big idea of today, or yesterday?
Favourite tools:
My laptop, alas...
Favourite website:
www.tuttobenedesignshop.com
Hobby:
All sorts of stuff.
Best advice I ever received:
Only add the salt to the water after it’s started to boil.
Biggest blunder:
Probably the big burglary in Milan in 2006. But there was not much we could do about that... or maybe we should have smashed the window after all?
Tips for professional colleagues:
Present your work with Tuttobene!
As an ambassador of Amsterdam, I would...
Bundle all the initiatives that are currently geared towards the promotion of the creative industry, and particularly design, and organise one major international event.
