Kondor Wessels Vastgoed - a real estate company in the Netherlands - reached out to us and requested a new website for their luxury apartment brand
located in Scheveningen beach called Lumen. Together with our talented team we’ve developed a website that aligns with the premium feeling of Lumen
and provides seamless experience for the buyers.

While cycling through Rotterdam our art director from Greece, Constantine Belias, got inspired and found a creative way to explore the city by
designing a contemporary typeface to encapsulate the architecture and the culture.

The June’s newsletter is wrapped in geometric designs. Basic geometric shapes are the foundation for graphic design and art. Many designers are
aiming for simplicity in their design, using plain geometric shapes is still one of the leading trends in the field for 2020. Like Steve Jobs once
said: “Simple can be harder than complex: You have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple. But it’s worth it in the end because
once you get there, you can move mountains.” Geometric designs may look simple but they actually require a lot of work in order to recreate a
composition that carries the right meaning for people to grasp.

Meet
Ayana Waki, our fresh UX Design Intern. She is a third year economics major from
Tokyo, currently on exchange at Erasmus University Rotterdam. While studying finance, she wanted to challenge
herself in something completely different and ended up at DPDK. Her main reason to come to the Netherlands are the festivals. Music, partying in the
sun, dancing… Luckily for Ayana that was the first thing she did when arriving in the Netherlands because then the pandemic started. Sadly, no
events are going to be held this year but if anyone likes to chat obsessively about music, then there is a good chance you’ll become besties with
Ayana.

This is
Melissa, she has recently joined DPDK as a Visual Designer. During her studies at Birmingham City University she won
an award which helped her gain some connections in the Netherlands. So, three years ago she decided to move from
England to Amsterdam. Designing is definitely her thing, just like making art - check it out on her
Instagram
account. If she is not on her laptop or holding a brush, you can often find her chilling and watching Netflix on the couch.
