The world is made of
stories and images.

I design visuals, music, words, or a synthesis of those.

Joost de Haas (1988)

 

Hi, my name is Joost.

I like Japanese food, dancing, short stories, being amazed about distances in the universe, Nina Simone.

I love to work on projects that put things in motion. My favorite collaborations are with theatre makers, film makers and musicians, and with political or environmental organisations.

Approach

 

While there is no formula for a good work,
my design process often consists of three phases:

1. Analysis

This phase is mostly about asking questions. Starting with the most important one:

Why should something exist? That creates fun sessions that leave us with the core of a story.

2. Concept

This phase is about finding the right tone and the most suitable medium.

What are we making? It could end up being a multidisciplinary campaign, or a lecture in an attic.

3. Execution

This phase is about craft. Size, color, shape, length.

How does it look? I've immersed myself in many disciplines from animation to music production.
