Patswerk
Illustrator trio Patswerk was founded in 2008 by long-time friends Ramon Avelino, Rogier Mulder, and Lex van Tol. Producing bold illustrations with an attention to detail, their work is playful and often colorful, as they incorporate fun, clean lines and the occasional moustache in their designs.
Based in the Netherlands, the illustrators love to create things that make them happy. They care about nicely printed stuff and are always looking for that perfect paper sample, but can get equally excited about a funky RGB color or a smooth animation. Most importantly, they’re always up for challenging new projects to build on their already-impressive client list.
