EDWIN VAN GELDER
Edwin van Gelder is an independent graphic designer based in Amsterdam,
the Netherlands. After graduating from from Utrecht School of the Arts in 2004,
van Gelder founded Mainstudio and has worked under the name ever since.
Mainstudio's projects include editorial design, books and visual identities for
clients within architecture, art and fashion.
Clients include Frame Publishers, Wiel Arets Architects, and the Dutch Fashion
Biennial. Van Gelder has won various international awards (Art Directors Club New York,
Best Dutch Book Design) and has been part of different international design juries,

Art Directors Club the Netherlands.
His work, as well as interviews, has been published in various books and magazines,
including +81 Magazine, Slanted, and Process Journal of Design.
Van Gelder loves typography, magazines, identities and books. His design approach
is
creating a clear concept, while always playing with the context of the information
and
looking for something unique in every assignment.
