One-person creative studio based in Utrecht. Founded by Petra Verkade. Her methods focus on the fields of illustration, graphic design and print. A strong visual language emerges in her work by converting simple concepts into colourful, unique worlds. Within every project she is looking for the challenge to make it her own. She incorporates the fascination for form and color through a playful, yet thoughtful twist that characterizes her work. Petra combines this fascination and her urge to create with her love for printing techniques such as risograph and silkscreen.
