A basis to build upon
Designing in two dimensions has always been a pillar of Elsinga's work. Graphic design can be seen as a natural extension of learning to draw as a child.
Getting mental images down on paper and figuring out a composition is an almost meditative exercise. Patience and focus - every detail matters - the love for lines, proportion and rhythm.
Roel has created various books, visuals, logo's, posters, brochures and more over the years and is still exploring the design of decorative patterns. These days, he is mainly focused on 3D design.
