This is what other people say about me...

“In our practise, between the good designers, you meet 2 types of people;

the hardworking dedicated workers

who start with A and work through to Z and the

creative minds

, who jump to the end result with big and sometimes uncontrollable leaps. Tessa has

united

these two qualities.[...] Her project demonstrates originality in ideas, and the width of each idea shows the richness of her mind.”
Judicium quote on Master diploma.

“Tessa Lavrijsen’s project is a case in point of a

realistic, though highly original concept

. She has managed to link branding to generic products like plants, and to place them within a shop concept that might well become

reality

in a couple of months.”
Quote from the YD+I jury for nominated Waterdrinker Project

Recomendations from colleagues

“I worked with Tessa during a number of projects. Tessa is a

very competent and profesional

colleague. She is a pleasure to work with, creative, reliable and

never losing sight of the overall picture

.” Marije Kaashoek, Projectcoordinator, Willem de Kooning Academy

“Tessa was great to work with. She has an eye for detail and is

open for input and critisism

. Deadlines are no problem for her and she goes on until the job is done. Her ideas and designs are practical yet also playful.” Jeroen Mimran, Graphic Designer, SVT Branding and Design.
