Postcard and poster for a monthly women writer’s cafe at the grand cafe ‘t Gulden Vlies in Alkmaar, The Netherlands. The monthly meetings started six years ago, initiated and still organised by Christine de Vries of SHODO. It proved to be such a success many others have started similar cafes around the country.

SHODO offers people tools to go on an inner pilgrimage - a seven-step writing program for self-exploration. The icon below will be used by SHODO branding their service. It is in part inspired by Saint Christopher, a popular saint who holds patronage over travel and travelers, and leads the way. Medallions of his image are still very popular and often displayed in vehicles for protection during long journeys. 

SHODO is featured in Happinez, the largest ‘mindstyle’ magazine in the Netherlands with hundreds of thousands very loyal readers. The subject is inner pilgrimage, writing about one’s feelings and impressions working through a seven-stage journey. The labyrinth is a means to visualise this journey.

The announcement of the Dutch Annual Day of Dairy Writing, organised by Shodo. Somehow the Chairman snuck his way in.

A new identity for Shodo, a Dutch company that organises courses helping people with their personal exploration and growth, through creative writing and keeping a diary. The logo will gradually be implemented.

I’m working on the restyling of a logo and branding for Shodo, a Dutch company that organises courses that help people with their personal exploration and growth, through creative writing and keeping a diary. This is an illustration I made on the side while thinking about possible directions for the new logo.
