Where to begin ... the first of its kind, destination extraordinaire, overflowing with inspiration, personality and humor. .. the pixel-perfect portal for designers and design-minded developers since nineteen hundred and ninety something or another.

Kaliber10000 (or K10k) was the brain-child of Toke, Michael & Per - it was an independent, non-commercial web zine which strived to inspire, to provoke, to allow both others & ourselves the joy of having full artistic freedom – to give people a break, and re-charge their batteries.

K10k was built up around the weekly “issue” - an experiment-like format where anything went, and where designers / design teams got to strut their stuff, flex their creative muscles, without having to worry about anyone looking over their shoulder.

Over the years the site expanded with numerous other sections - including the massive [on] display exhibition, different forms of special features (games, animated stories, anything that didn't fit within the issue format), and an almost-hourly updated design news feed, which was supplied by a select group of top designers from all over the world.

While there's a deep fondness for the community, artwork and innovation that was catalyzed by K10k, we are strong believers that timing is everything. Having gratefully enjoyed every millisecond of that fifteen year run, its time has come and so we must bid adieu to Barney and the clan.
