Hi, my name is Nienke

My name is Nienke Markus, and I’m a visual designer from Rotterdam.
I have experience in both the commercial and social aspects of the design field. My goal is always to bring out the best in a brand and translate it into a visual design.
​
My designs are known for their playfulness and vibrant colors, reflecting my personality. Using the design thinking method, I take a critical approach to the creative process. The first idea isn’t always the best one. My workflow involves developing a concept and returning to the testing phase. This way, I continuously strive to achieve the best result and ensure a strong concept with fitting media.
​
What gives me the most satisfaction is enjoying the final result at the end of the day. That’s where I draw all my passion and perseverance from.
I am currently working as a Visual Designer at Slidebuilder B.V. I graduated from St. Joost School of Art and Design in Breda, where I completed the New Design and Attitudes program. Before that, I studied Art and Design at the Graphic Lyceum Rotterdam.
​
Driven by curiosity, I’m always developing new skills. In my free time, I’m learning motion design. I’m also interested in new technologies and enjoy creating 3D designs.
