About
Hi!
My name is Rob and I'm 27 years old. I've been living in Amsterdam for over 6 years now but I'm originally from the south of Holland (Brabant!).
Before my current study of Graphic Design at the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague (I'm currently graduating) I also graduated a copywriter. Besides that I studied Media & Culture for some time.
My main interest as a graphic designer lies on the autonomous, conceptual, typographic side of art and design with a strong focus on language. Other keywords: contemporary art, screenprinting, collage, tattoos, literature, poetry, film, sound art, etc.
Besides that I am a music geek. I come from a hardcore/punk background but I'm also in love with jazz, noise, ambient, drones, experimental indie, death metal, new wave, singer/songwriter, etc.
I also play the drums and some guitar but don't have a band at the moment. Too busy graduating and working.
