Last year I had the opportunity to create motion principles for the Nike Curv Studios identity. Working closely alongside the team of AKQA has been an absolute pleasure.

Nike Curv Studios is a new community of practice – driving the highest standards across Nike’s workforce, starting at its European Headquarters in Hilversum. Born from the swoosh itself, CURV Studios’ goal is to foster a culture of innovation, iteration, and collaboration across Nike’s global product & design community. •
Brand and Identity project by AKQA for Nike Curv. Motion design by Calango.

I had the pleasure of doing design and motion for WhatsApp last summer as part of their campaign about privacy and encryption.
Commissioned by the nice people of @hueso.co ! 💛
A more detailed showcase will follow soon!

Another collaboration with @vucko.co ! Earlier this year I had the chance to work on the motion system for @googlecloud Summit. Built around the “highest point” the identity signals innovation and open dialogue at every step.

Planned some downtime from client work to experiment a bit more. Starting with this dynamic grid. Swipe for some variation in the settings.

Dropping some more experiments and offcuts soon!

For those interested, all done in After Effects with some simple expressions.

New work: rebranding for @neurons_lab , an AI-consultancy firm. For this project I teamed up with @prosper.and.bloom.agency to developed a visual identity centered around the idea of AI as a journey — complex, ever-evolving, and full of possibilities. In this landscape Neurons Lab serves as a guide, helping businesses navigate with confidence and clarity.
This concept materializes through a system of abstracted stepping stones, symbolizing progress, decision-making, and the structured yet dynamic nature of AI. The design balances technical precision with human intuition, creating a brand that feels innovative and secure.
It’s been a while since I last touched Cinema 4D, but crafting these satisfying loops has been an enjoyable process.

As part of the @vucko.co team, I helped redefine the motion principles for the new brand identity, crafted by @studioherrstrom .
Inspired by circular tech, a sweeping revolving motion is at the core of the motion identity, lending heightened meaning to messaging, imagery, and beyond. Unique behaviors create consistency across every touchpoint while feeling as effortless as purchasing refurbished tech — a click of a button.

“Brabants Bont”
“This cover is my interpretation of the waving checkered flag of Brabant, but there's a little more to it. After living in Amsterdam for about 20 years, my wife and I decided to move back to our roots in 's-Hertogenbosch (we actually touched down in Vught, close enough!). Whenever we drove down south to visit family, we crossed the Maas river and were greeted by a sign that said 'Welkom in Brabant' with an image of a distorted waving checkered flag. If you know, you know. It always gave me warm and familiar feelings, but for a long time, I also felt like I had moved on from this place. Even though I'm now enjoying a bi-city lifestyle, officially moving back has been quite a process for me. I've cycled through phases of panic, joy, regret, and bliss several times. And slowly but surely, I'm starting to feel like I haven't moved back to my hometown, but I've moved on from Amsterdam. This artwork is the celebration of this personal process. Here's to a new chapter. Hoist the flag!”.

Been wrestling some expressions in After Effects to let you know that I will be speaking at @motionplusdesign in Rotterdam next month. 🤓
