Women Of Design

Influence And Inspiration...

From The Original Trailblazers To The New Groundbreakers.

Ornate, complex, and anomalous are characteristics that could render graphic design unapproachable, but in the dextrous hands (and mind) of Catelijne van Middelkoop these are adjectives that only begin to compliment the visual language that she has developed over the years as one of the founding partners of Strange Attractors, the Hague- and New York based-firm that she co-founded with partner Ryan Pescatore Frisk in 2001. Together they work on a bewildering range of projects from motion graphics, to interactive, print, environmental and identity design. A third generation Dutch designer, van Middelkoop is currently on the National Board of Directors of the Association of Dutch Designers/BNO.
