the sound of graphic design?

Usually graphic designers are the last creatives to work on music projects before they go in production; after the music has been rehearsed, played, recorded, mixed, remixed and mastered, the graphic designer adds a visual identity to the music. At its best, the graphic designer is able to capture the essential atmosphere and mood of the recorded music and give it its unique face. This way of working is fine and logical, given the fact that the music is leading. However, we believe it is an extremely interesting idea to flip this concept 180° around!

nice lttle idea this, although the promise seems to be better than the reality so far… not so sure publishing a list of people who were ‘asked to take part’ was such a good idea though, most of them didn’t actually take part apparently…

25 days shooting kessels

?When he looked through his own family?s albums, he realized that his sister suddenly stops appearing,?

i spent several weeks working together with ‘erik kessels’ early last year, on a magazine, during which time a small camera crew followed him wherever he went, the documentary they were making about his life is now complete and will be airing on dutch TV in late august, looking forward to seeing that…

mooi nederland

the dutch post office have released a combination stamp sheet with some of the designs made this year in the ‘mooi nederland’ series, a bit of a mess this one… if you ask me… the nicest thing about is the perforated line typo, originally made by ‘178 aardige ontwerpers’ in the initial designs
