going East - again

Two years ago, I did an interview with Kitty de Jong for BNO's magazine Vormberichten, on my career and future plans. At the time, I was just about to start on an adventure in the Middle East. Two years later, with many lessons learned, I am embarking on an adventure in South Korea. So it was time for an update. Download part two of my career dossier (dutch only). 

illustrations featured in arabesque 2

The lifesized illustrations I made at OrientationLab will be featured in Arabesque 2: graphic design from the arab world and persia, by Gestalten. Even though I'm not a designer from those regions, I am greatly inspired by the arabic and persian visual culture, and that shone through enough for the editors to include me in the edition. Edited by Ben Wittner and Sascha Thoma, available from September 2011. 

This is not iDPure

The 2010 Special edition of Swiss design magazine IDPURE is out now, featuring one of my Nowruz drawings. The theme is "this is not..." You can check out the entire mag online, but you can also buy it (the smell of ink, the touch of paper, mmm...).

Publicity 101

The association of Dutch Designers BNO interviewed us on publicity: what it does for agencies and designers, whether it's important, and how you go about getting some. The interviews with Erik Kessels, Marcel Kampman and Lava are definately worth a read: download the pdf.  

Career in design

In the December Issue of Vormberichten, the magazine by the Association of Dutch Designers, Kitty de Jong interviews me on my career and new job at OrientationLab: our mission and what's in store for 2010. You can download the article as a pdf. Dutch language only.

IDPure Special Edition 2008

Some of my work will be featured in an upcoming special edition of the Swiss design magazine IdPure. My poster for the Graphic Design Festival in Breda even made the cover! IDPURE is a magazine dedicated to professionals working in the graphic arts, images and design, as well as to those working in the areas of creation and visual communication. IDPURE offers a comprehensive picture of the world of creation in Switzerland and abroad.

Kelvin: Color Today

The evenstyle I created at NLXL for Culturenight 2004 has been selected for the publication 'Kelvin Color Today'. See the book on Amazon.com Color is playing an increasingly significant role in global visual communication. It is being used more than ever to give design projects, campaigns and brands their own distinctive style. Surprisingly, however, very little has so far been published that investigates today's evolving perception and application of color.
