About StudioSpass

Studio Spass is a Rotterdam-based art & design studio that works across identities, campaigns and spatial design projects. Founded by Jaron Korvinus and Daan Mens, the studio combines a rigorous, considered and intelligent approach with a playful sensibility. The studio is interested in exploring the boundaries of visual systems and how these can be presented in various ways. Their work is ranging from graphic identities and experimental typography to spatial design and experiences in public space. Responding to space as a given context is often the starting point for their creative process in which their fascination for form, material and interaction perfectly align.
