WHO WE ARE
We build strong br*nds and help them to connect with people. Our broad experience with a diverse range of social, cultural, and corporate clients allow us to bring important perspectives to life.
We design visual identities, on- and offline visual communications, books and exhibitions that stand out.
Our personal aspirations allow us to work with international and local clients with an ambition for social change. We bring a sensitive, educated approach to communication on the topic of social inclusion in a Dutch and international context.
WHAT WE DESIGN
OUR CAUSE
Our work centers around community needs and social impact. As a design studio we actively address social affairs concerning identity with an intersectional approach. We take it as our responsibility to provide clarity and have a positive social impact on the world.
Together with our clients we develop strong, long term working relationships in our shared passion for relevant design and positive social change. We initiate social projects with our partners and allies and continue to work with social change organizations. Our practice is driven by connection and reconnection, so that we may be a hub for social impact.
To focus our intentions we divide our social design work over four categories.
(Dutch) design has a deeply rooted colonial history that is difficult to escape. Therefore, it is essential for us to acknowledge the dynamics of power and privilege surrounding the clients we work with. We envision an inclusive, emotionally competent and decolonized world. This world is held together by the loving interactions between and within communities.
This is a world that acknowledges both the problematic histories of design, and also the power of design in creating clarity and collaboration. We want a world that embraces accountability.
This is the only way to build the inclusive, decolonized, equitable world that we have needed for generations.
