Hi, I am Esther Jongste. Nice to meet you! Allow me to introduce myself

About

Coming home and the power of repeat

From the moment I grew familiar with the surface (pattern) design world, it felt like coming home. Every time I am surprised by the power of repeat, the effect of the color palette and subtle balance of the composition.

Something fresh, something new

Everyday-life is great source of inspiration. Converting and reshaping my finds into something new, something fresh, which will bring joy to people's everyday-life.

The inspirational new

I love to get involved in new projects. Doing research, brainstorm ideas and gather visuals to create inspiring mood boards.

Thoughtful curiosity

I am curious about the possibilities of offered vision and materials. Within the given ideas and styles, it is a fascinating challenge to handpick the ultimate boundaries of implementation. Working through the design process, developing color palettes, it all feels natural and makes me enthusiastic to come up with creative solutions.

Solid ground

More than ten years of working as a designer in digital graphics has given me a solid background in graphical computer technology.

Incorporated passions

Photography and Imaging are other passions of mine. I like to incorporate these qualities with my design work.

Long live creative relationships

I love my work, I love the people I meet and I can't wait to become connected with all of you who are interested in my design style and what I do. Always looking forward to build long-lasting creative relationships. What about you?
