FUTURE

The growing complexity of the world we live in seems threatening sometimes. I believe that a design or design-thinking approach is the best way to deal with this. So I want to keep contributing to translating complex subjects towards an understandable human level. Hopefully I can contribute to the integration of design in the capillary of society and make technology more ‘human’ again.

I mainly want to increase the impact that I can have through design. I would like to continue my ‘journalism through design’ approach: investigating complex topics and making them manageable for people. This involves continuously alternating and combining research and design to come up with appropriate information structures and tools.

In my career as an information designer I’m mainly interested in further specializing in ‘Ideas and Concepts’, ‘Social and Cultural Awareness’, and ‘Form and Senses’.
