Sean van den Steenhoven is a graphic designer based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. His practice has an editorial approach and is always driven by dialogue and awareness of the given context, resulting in mixed media outcomes with a strong typographic character. He's motivated to translate extensive research into concepts that stay visually true to their essence; seeing design as a medium for storytelling, research, poetry, exploration, creation, and serendipity. He holds a Bachelor’s degree from the University of the Arts Utrecht, he studied at the Politecnico di Milano, Italy, and worked as an intern with Marco Balesteros (Letra) in Lisbon, Portugal and Córdova Canillas in Barcelona, Spain. In the fall of 2018 he worked with designers collective New Studio in Brooklyn, New York. In addition he is responsible for the in-house design for BAK, basis voor actuele kunst, Utrecht.
