Logo and business cards for an Amsterdam based printed promotion distribution company. All elements are based on the A-ratio that flyers or posters have. The three crosses in the mark refer to the Amsterdam coat of arms as well as the changing images they distribute.

Logo for a web shop that sells high-end fashion accessories. Unfortunately my client disappeared into thin air and until now the logo is not being used. (Which is sort of good since I never got paid)

Kanaleneiland is a neighborhood in the south-west of Utrecht. It was built during the sixties as a part of of a big city expansion project. Nowadays the neighborhood is being regarded as an impoverished area. 76% of its inhabitants are non-Dutch, and the crime rate is high. 
I used to live there for four years and I never had a bad experience. During that time I noticed national media were being more negative about the neighborhood then then I experienced it myself.

This installation was being exhibited at the ‘Rietveld in de Kerk’ show in the Oude Kerk, Amsterdam.
I manipulated the typewriters ‘face’ in such a way that the author distorts his own message while typing. The person following should be able to translate the message by comparing the two proofs. It illustrates the passing on of information through time.
