ARK.Amsterdam

ARK.Amsterdam is a Dutch nomadic studio specializing in mixed media, graphic design, and research that adapts to assignments ranging from monumental to minuscule scales. Founded as Atelier Roosje Klap, this Amsterdam-based collective utilizes an interdisciplinary approach to challenge communication boundaries through private commissions, public projects, and self-defined initiatives.

• Services: The firm offers a festive team of regular collaborators drawn from an extensive international network including artists, architects, curators, historians, conservators, thinkers, makers, and doers.
• Industries: Projects are approached as research adventures to create designs that are present, powerful, intelligent, refined, historically aware, context-conscious, cheeky, and always fresh.
• Operations: The studio functions as a spandex-stretchy design community capable of adapting to any assignment within the hyperlinked, 24-hour global world.

This research-based methodology enables ARK to define its own assignments while creating a new global design membrane alongside assigned work.
