        • <a3, 2007 "Re/Search-Engine / Adventure City Cards Game"
          Visualisation/infographic for a cardsgame devel-
          loped by 'DRFTWD Office', an architecture / urban
          development studio in Amsterdam. The structure
          of the game is essential in the game-play. One
          part of the design shows the full set of cards,
          placed so to reveal this stucture.
          The design for the backsides of the cards is derived
          from the decorative tradition of playing card design.
          The typically meaningless patterns here serve as a
          quartet-identifyer and again reflect the games' total
          structure.

        • Website, 2007 Online archive for the work of a dutch jewelry designer.
          Her work go's back to 1974 and the number of images is
          way over 200. The design deals with this amount by
          initiating with all visual content, which can than be
          dissected into multiple levels of subgroups.
          It provides the possibility of analysis but at the same
          time functions as a random image highlighter.

          of light. A 3-dimensional setting is
          photographed under strict lightning
          conditions (2). The initial graytones this
          results in, are compensated by the use
          of oil paint (1), resulting in the dis-
          appearance of all visual distinction.
          The fold out version of the setting (3)
          -after being treated- becomes an info-
          graphic of the setting and it's
          relation to the environment.

      • Backstage
        • Book, 2005 'Backstage' was a live publication for casco's 'publish or
          be damned' exhibition, on Saturday, Nov.5 2005, in Utrecht.
          The documentation of our research into this project was used
          as content. The designing of this content was broadcasted
          -in real-time- to the screens/headset/printer of an
          abandoned workstation inside casco.

      • Dahl Soup
        • Book, 2005 A cookbook about a single recipe. Every section is about
          one ingredient and is designed by a different designer. My
          section is about ginger, as well as it is about hyperlinked
          information. With the web as a source, any search for
          information is surrounded by endless sub-information.
          The section contains a documentation of my search for
          information about ginger within Wikipedia.

          The first part is working its way up through the
          complete scientific classification of ginger, therefore
          I developed a layout system based on the zeitgeist of
          this classification, with the use of the golden ratio.
          The middle contains the article about ginger itself.
          Finally, all articles from the links within the ginger
          article are summed up within one of the previously
          defined layouts, suiting my personal interest in the
          particular article.

          in a book.' A typical car commercial billboard
          photographed with a typical rush hour traffic-
          jam in front. Next it was pasted back onto that
          same billboard. A typical method of postering
          this size billboard is by pasting 'plano' (±A0)
          sized posters side by side. This same 'plano'
          sized paper is also used for making the
          signatures of the book (aka sections).

          Cyan Magenta and Yellow should theoretically be
          able to produce the 'full' color spectrum. This
          additive color mixing system I used to create a
          color-coded alphabet. Each color is used in 3
          value's: 0%, 50%, 100%.
          Excluding the C0% M0% Y0% this results in a total
          of 26 possible shades which equals the amount of
          characters from the latin alphabet. The color of a
          word is defined by the average of all containing
          letter-value's.

          With it's potential of becoming a superior
          connection to the south of europe, this new
          connection is kind of compressing the space
          in between, abstracting it.

          Made in collaboration with Jonathan Puckey.

          only space defined. Particularly in the rietveld.
