2008 - Website (concept, art direction and lead design). Project at Fabrique

TuneTribe is one of the biggest online music stores in the UK. Fabrique was asked to refresh the old site. The result is an easy to use and clear website for music lovers of all genres. Visitors of the website can personalise their home page so that only their favorite music genres will be shown. It is also possible for visitors and employees of TuneTribe to create custom playlists.

H+F Collection

2005-05-01T21:52:00+01:00

2005 - Website (concept, design and flash programming). Project at Studio Dumbar

Han Nefkens is a Dutch Journalist and Art collector. His large art collection consists mostly of photographs and paintings. He wanted people to be able to view his entire art collection on one website; instead of only being able to see parts in different museums and exhibitions. The website concept stems from the logo form which contains a ‘plus’ sign. This plus was used to build a grid system from which the entire website is constructed. The experience is like a trip to a museum; there are surprises in every room. The expanding and collapsing navigation is smooth and dynamic, adding to this experience, like opening and closing doors. People can access information about specific pieces by opening information panels however the intention is that the focus is largely on the artwork itself. Take a look at this project

KPN, marketleader in the Dutch telecom/internet market, asked Studio Dumbar to create a new website for their mobile i-mode service. Our task was to present i-mode in an understandable and credible way. We created a website using Dutch photography and placing the services in a relevant environment. We created the ‘i-moments’, a series of engaging interactive photo animations showing the i-mode services in their actual environments, making it relevant for users. These stories explain the impact that i-mode can have on everyday life. There are three story lines that users can switch between. The i-menu on the i-mode handsets was also created as part of this project. Take a look at this project

Graduation project

2002-07-31T18:59:00+01:00

2002 - Interactive 3D environement. School project

As my graduation project studying Illustration I created an interactive 3D environment comparable to a computer game. As starting point I chose Homer’s Odyssey because the timelessness of its themes and its many layers appealed to me a great deal. One of it’s motifs in particular. “The purpose of the journey is the traveling itself” I chose a transparent and graphic look. Massive shapes are expressed as lines occasionally resulting in abstract and surprising patterns and images. This project was nominated for the ‘Kunstanjer’ of the Prins Bernhard Culture Foundation Utrecht by the Illustration department of the Utrecht School of Arts. Take a look at this project
