identity and for Dutch design lab
...................................................................................................
The work of Hella Jongerius/Jongeriuslab is known for the combination of industrial proces and individual craft. The identity reflects that philosophy: the basic layout is brought to life by the content of each designer, the result is a highly individual identity.

identity and campaign for broadcasting organisation
...................................................................................................
Because the visual identity of Omroep C was developped for the main purpose to win the necessary number of members to go on air, most stationary items can serve as application forms as well.

ArtAids assigns prominent artists to create a work of art to be sold in order to raise money for very specific AIDS projects in developing countries. The stationary can be used two-sided, depending on which aspect is stressed out, Art or Aids.

logo proposal for the Chinese Broadcasting Network
................................................................................................... This logo relates to the ancient chinese puzzle as well as
to the skin of the new CCTV building in Beijing, a kind of wireframe texture based on triangles. The logo allows for
a flexible usage: as a static text, as an animation, as a monospace-font (e.g. tickertext), for introducing different formats and programs or even to create a corporate logo family for all CCTV channels.

print identity & animation for Dutch Design portal
...................................................................................................
The printed matters of the design portal Design.nl use the
logo in a playful way. No additional forms have been added,
the humorous tone of the logo has been translated into various illustrations.

identity & poster series for an orchestra
................................................................................................... Red Dot : grand prix winner 2006
"The poster series were designed for Amsterdam Sinfonietta, an independent ensemble mostly consisting of young musicians. Each individual concert differs in repertoire, musicians and atmosphere, and this is incorporated in the design. Apart from the distinct logo, which is a consistent element placed in the upper left- or right-hand corner, the musical themes are interpreted graphically by taking up content-related associations in the imagery"
