Brand Development
Enter the realm of ‘Brand Development,’ where vision and design coalesce into a tangible identity. In this project, I was approached by an innovative company specializing in Immersion Cooling in search of a logo that encapsulates their expertise in fluid technologies. Drawing inspiration from an image they admired, I crafted a dynamic logo that captures the essence of their business – fluid, modern, and profound.
The design process began with a 3D rendering to create an immediate visual impact. This allowed us to iterate swiftly and settle on a form that embodies the core of their brand. After approval, I transitioned the 3D concept into pixel-perfect vector art in Illustrator, laying the groundwork for a versatile and scalable brand identity.
With the logo as the cornerstone, I developed a comprehensive brand style and penned ‘branding guidelines’ to ensure the integrity of the brand’s identity across all dimensions. From stationery to business cards, and from digital email signatures to the company fleet design – each application reinforces the brand’s distinctive character and enhances their market visibility.
Brand Development
I present to you a project where vision and design coalesce into a tangible identity for a company specializing in Immersion Cooling. Inspired by an image that illustrates their fluid technologies, I created a dynamic logo that captures the essence of the business. From an initial 3D rendering to the final pixel-perfect vector art in Illustrator, the design process laid the groundwork for a versatile and scalable corporate identity. This foundation supported the development of a complete brand style, from stationery to vehicle fleet, which enhances the distinctive character of the brand and increases its visibility in the market.
Graphic Design
This spring, I bring the joy of Easter to life with a graphic design that is as unique as it is enchanting. My creation, an Easter egg box designed for a chocolate Easter egg, combines the rustic charm of coarse paper with the delicate beauty of origami art. Starting with a thoughtful sketch, every side of the box is meticulously crafted to reveal a colorful Easter scene, complete with playful bunnies and fluttering butterflies, all in a harmonious palette of spring pastel colors.
The innovation of this design lies in the simulation of an egg-shaped ‘hole’ on both the front and back of the box, behind which the cheerful Easter scenes unfold. Four smaller origami Easter eggs stand proudly on guard, while a band of softly colored origami butterflies gracefully floats over the box, creating a visual connection from one side to the other. This is all topped off with a handle on the top of the box, making it a perfect gift to give and receive.
Every element of this design was generated with the help of AI and then brought together with Photoshop and Illustrator, a testament to the fusion of technology and traditional art in my graphic work. This Easter box is not just packaging, but a celebration of the season, ready to be printed in large quantities for Easter 2025.

Discover ‘Illustration’, where drawing and detail merge into artworks that tell stories. A unique commission for Champagne labels, inspired by my illustrations of Dutch landmarks, led to the creation of ‘Utrecht Champagne’, followed by Amsterdam and Rotterdam. This series honors each city with beautiful pen drawings, turning the Champagne bottles into collectibles, now successfully introduced in Rotterdam with plans to roll out across Europe.
These labels represent a fusion of art, culture, and exclusivity, each with its own story that embodies the urban spirit and my illustrative skills. This project highlights how art enriches brands and forges deeper connections, creating unique experiences and memories.

The series, starting in Utrecht followed by Amsterdam and Rotterdam, transforms Champagne bottles into collectibles by adorning them with pen drawings of iconic cityscapes. These labels are a symbol of art, culture, and exclusivity, and have already been successful in three cities, with plans for expansion across Europe. This project demonstrates the power of art to enrich brands and create deeper, personal connections.
Image Editing
Dive deeper into my fascination with image editing, where each picture tells its own unique story. This entirely self-led project unveils the synergy between an artisan bakery and a pastry box manufacturer, showcasing a unique partnership that positions the bakery not only as a client but also as a charming backdrop. “Baked with Love, Packaged with Care” reflects my dedication to detail and design, highlighting the harmony between product and presentation.
From the initial concept development using AI to coordinating a photo shoot and undertaking extensive image editing, every phase emphasized my commitment to quality and aesthetic excellence. I spearheaded communications with all involved parties, directed the photo shoot, and supervised the production of a large-format print, now displayed as artwork in the lobby of the packaging manufacturer.
This journey, from the earliest sketch to the final assembly of the 2×3 meter print, illustrates not just my proficiency in image editing but also my capacity to realize a visionary concept.
