Hi, and welcome to my website.

What I do
I focus my energy on editorial and concept-driven design & innovative visualisation. The Institute for Art and Design Arnhem (ArtEZ), and the Gerrit Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam taught me to remap the boundaries of design so as to coincide with my other interests. My internship at graphic design agency NLXL in The Hague inspired me to strive for innovation and originality in the visualisation of ideas. While working at LAVA graphic designers in Amsterdam I developed methods for applying my ideas and graphics to editorial design in dynamic and diverse collaborative efforts.

Next to my design work I am involved in the following projects:

Research initiative: Multiplicity & Visual Identities
Illustration collective: Le Grand Crew
Inspiration source: OK-Blog & OK-Periodicals

Clients: DTN, DUF Bookazine, BNO, GGD Rotterdam, Grafische Cultuurstichting, Le Cool Amsterdam, Livesized, Setola & Gille, Studio Dumbar, Tha Five Elements, Universitair Medisch Centum Groningen, Zurich University of the Arts
