Lecture by StudioSpass
Institute of Design, Class of Graphic Design
Prof. Oliver Kartak
This lecture will be an introduction into the work and methods of the Rotterdam based Studio Spass that works on a wide range of design and art projects. Being a small studio they really enjoy the diversity of those challenges.
Growing up with 90’s skateboard culture and living in the ever evolving eclectic architectural environment of Rotterdam has shaped their playful view on interaction and (semi) public space. Typography and spatial design has alway played a prominent role in their work. Most importantly they want their works to be used and enjoyed by people. This can best be seen in some of the installations and exhibitions that will be highlighted during the talk.
*Studio Spass is a Rotterdam-based design studio that works across print, branding, web and spatial design projects. Founded by Jaron Korvinus and Daan Mens, the studio combines a rigorous, considered and intelligent approach with a playful sensibility. They understand that powerful and effective design needs both original ideas and faultless execution, and the team prides itself on its perfectionist eye for the little details as well as its innovative conceptual thinking.
