Amsterdam-based design studio Drawswords was founded in 2008. The studio's work is characterized by visually strong, clear and refreshing content-based typographic solutions.
Drawswords designs for both cultural and commercial fields and works on projects such as visual identities, publications and editorial design, websites, music packaging, artist books and other printed matter like posters and flyers. The studio also initiates projects of its own, like the Langscapes collaborations with several well-known composers.
Clients include KIT Publishers, Tropenmuseum. Face Tomorrow, MKgalerie, Out Of Office, Onomatopee, STEIM and Kunstenaars&CO (now: Cultuur en Ondernemen).
To retain creative freedom and personal involvement, the studio is and will remain small-scaled. For bigger projects or whenever necessary we make use of a network of talented and flexible professionals in a.o. the fields of type design, copywriting, photography, motion design, composition and programming.
