Blog/Cold War Modern

Cold War Modern at the V&A is the first exhibition to explore international developments in modern art, design, architecture and film in the context of the Cold War, as the Soviet Union and America engaged in an aggressive contest to build their own spheres of influence. The exhibition features a wide array of artists and designers of the period including Dieter Rams, Otl Aicher, Charles Eames, Le Corbusier and Stanley Kubrick.

The exhibition and guide were both designed by one of my long time favorite studios, Bibliothèque, a creatively-led graphic design consultancy that is based in Shoreditch, London.

After a year at Studio Dumbar, I decided to explore branding and worked at Brown KSDP, Amsterdam. Shortly after that, I joined internationally acclaimed design studio Koeweiden Postma. After working there for several years, I became co-creative director with Jacques Koeweiden. Currently, I am working as Design Director at Nike Europe in The Netherlands.
