Welcome,

I am a graphic and spatial designer working on the creation, activation and transformation of *public spaces. My +10 years of experience make me a versatile, conceptual and practical team player. It is my mission to create spatial experiences that reveal context, interaction and beauty.

*Public Space / publieke ruimte
My interpretation of the term public space lies in the Dutch word 'publiek' which carries a dual meaning. It refers both to an openly accessible space and also an audience. For me, designing public space is about communicating with the audience and to understand their needs, wishes and feelings.

Kamiel Vorwerk is a multidisciplinary designer working on the creation, activation and transformation of public spaces.

His concept of public space is informed by his Dutch background, in which the word “publiek” carries a dual meaning, referring to both an openly accessible space and also an audience. It is his purpose to create spatial experiences that reveal context, interaction, and beauty.
