about me

Hi, i’m José also known as ‘Joos’ and i’m the designer behind JOOS prints and patterns. Currently my studio is based in Rosmalen, after i started my design studio in Nijmegen in 2015. After my studies in fashion design at the Willem de Kooning Acadamy i worked as a graphic designer at an advertising agency. But my love for pattern design never faded and i decided to quit my job and start my own design studio, i followed a specialising studies in pattern design at Vogue Academy in Amsterdam.

Nature serves as my main source of inspiration, which, together with my background in graphic design, has led to JOOS’s signature prints of flowing yet abstract forms. All patterns are first painted and/or drawn by hand and subsequently digitally processed into their unique design.
