Bukett2024

︎ Concept development︎ Art direction + design︎ Brand guide development︎ Photography&#38;nbsp;




	





















2024 started in full throttle creating the brand identity for Bukett, an Amsterdam startup focussing on faux-bouquet rental services for offices. 

One of the biggest requests from the client was to stay away from all the clean, Scandi chic brands already out there — instead, contemporary, eclectic, and bold were our key words. &#38;nbsp;
I wore many different hats for this one: strategist, copywriter, copy, concepter, art director, design director, photographer, DTP-er, webdesigner.&#38;nbsp; &#38;nbsp;


Sadly the CEO decided to keep their (other) day job after all, so Bukett is on hold for now — but don’t let that stop you from enjoying this fine piece of branding.

What I love about this identity is that it’s very outspoken and definitely different, yet very simple in it’s system setup.&#38;nbsp;


Yes, the brand system has rules (otherwise it wouldn’t be a brand system heh?), but I made sure it was going to be easy to apply, as I knew from the get go that the client wouldn’t have a big budget to keep on a designer or even DTP-er from the launch of the product. So there’s rules around border sizes, typography, photography and the use of colour, but the implementation is simple and can be done by the managing director herself. &#38;nbsp;

Mana-Ma Yoga2021—2022

︎ Competitor research + strategy
︎ Concept development︎ Art direction + design︎ Social media content creation
︎ Motion design


	Brand design and strategy for Mana-Ma Yoga, an online yoga studio specialising in prenatal yoga.&#38;nbsp;This is one of my most favourite branding projects so far, as I did everything from competitor research, coming up with the name of the brand, creating the brand design and making social media content. 

Mana-Ma is a combination of two Sanskrit words meaning ‘Mother (of) the Spiritual Heart’. 

I created a series of mandala’s consisting of the ‘M’ wordmark. These mandala’s are used throughout the brand as supporting visuals, both static and in motion.

	About 5 years ago a few friends and I founded Yamba Health, an all natural vegan health brand selling originally only moringa (great plant, look it up), and now a full line of products such as vegan protein powders, energizing vitamin packed effervescent tablets and moringa oil.
&#38;nbsp;
 I suppose you could call this my design baby. Creative mastermind Stephen O’Neill and I have been sharing the task of designing everything that’s involved in starting up—and scaling up—this brand. From the very first wordmark and Indiegogo campaign website, to the packaging, webshop, flyers, banners, POS materials, newsletter templates and all social media content. Seriously, do yourself a favor and check out our Instagram account. I can honestly say that I personally created 95% of the content shown there. From ideas to visuals to copy to freaking hashtags ︎
All this hard work is paying off though: Yamba will soon be available at Holland &#38;amp; Barrett!&#38;nbsp;

Beetje Blozen Podcast ︎︎︎

De Heg ︎︎︎




	









Late 2023 I was advised by friends of friends to go have a coffee with Meinou van Beek, podcaster and writer of sensual, female focused poetry. Her wish was to give visual shape to her work, and she was looking for a designer to help her with this.


This is one of those (work) matches that only comes along every once in a while. It was an instant hit, and working with her sparked many new levels in my own creative thinking.
We decided to design a system that we can tour around with (Wildeburg 2025, here we come!), encouraging people to take a little moment for themselves, and dive into the podcast one story at a time/sign.

This project is all about body positivity and sensuality, and I made design choices that reflect this: the word mark has such a high exposure that it almost oozes out of its letter forms, and if you look closely, you’ll notice that each sign uses photography of the female body, in all its beautiful forms.

Beetje Blozen is already touring around the Netherlands. The first stop so far was the art project called ‘De Heg’ (shown below) on Marineterrein in Amsterdam, initiated by artist Naomi Jansen, where it was on display for all of April 2024. &#38;nbsp;
One of many things I love so much about this project, is that it’s ongoing, and keeps expanding. Both Meinou and I feel a genuine urge to turn Beetje Blozen into a bigger movement, and we can’t wait to see what the future has in store for it.

Knikkerkapitalen2017

︎ Type design

	

	For the ‘Knikkerkapitalen’ typeface I was inspired by glass marbles. Specifically the coloured swirl that’s inside transparent cat-eye ones. Knikkerkapitalen (what’s in a name) only consists of capitals, and is originally designed to be used as start-capitals. But if you really want to shout something to someone in a nice, still slightly subtle, not so harsh way, you can also just go ahead and use these! 
‘Knikkerkapitalen’ isn’t actually a typeface yet though, I tried dragging the shapes into FontForge once but gave up when I got to the kerning part. I’ve been hearing good things about Fontself though so I might give that a go sometime soon. &#38;nbsp;

Together with strategy mastermind Sidney Vollmer I created the entire identity for Everything Felt, a psychedelics assisted therapy practice in Amsterdam. Starting with the brand positioning (including an advised name change from the more generic ‘The Psychedelic Collective’ to ‘Everything Felt’, which adheres much more to the awe-inspiring nature of this type of therapy). 


The ‘wavy’ shape of the wordmark was inspired by captcha’s. after all, what’s more human than the test telling apart computers from actual human beings?Throughout social media and on the website, the word ‘Everything’ in the wordmark is replaced by several emotions one could experience during therapy, symbolising how therapy truly impacts each individual in a different, unique way.

I also designed a set of icons and visual elements to be used throughout social media and on the website. Each icon represents a unique step in the therapy process. &#38;nbsp;

Stem voor de natuur2023

︎ Type design
︎ Poster design︎ Wee bit of civil disobedience&#38;nbsp;




	










What do you do when Dutch elections are coming up and you are absolutely frightened as to what the outcome could be? 


I designed a few posters and helped roll out a campaign. Hoping that even just one person would change their mind and would put nature first this time around, instead of themselves. 


For the typography on these posters I drew inspiration from butterflies, and how amazingly soft, fringy and weird the hairs on their bodies are. I tried to mimic that texture in the typography.

I designed a set of posters, one of which I waved around at the Climate March in Amsterdam, as proudly and urgently as humanly possible.
