Autor/-in: Willemien Brand

Willemien Brand has channeled her passion for drawing and design into her life's work. After graduating with distinction from the prestigious Design Academy Eindhoven, she became an award-winning industrial designer. In the late '90s she launched Buro BRAND, a Visual Communication agency harnessing the inventive energy of a team of visionaries who share her passion. Together, they shape ways of visualising and simplifying complex processes, strategies and information.

The longer Willemien and her team worked in the field, the clearer it became to them that drawing and Visual Thinking are powerful tools that strengthen employee engagement and build bridges between businesses and their customers. Now she and her team from Buro BRAND share this philosophy and passion with companies around the world, inspiring and enabling them to embrace the power of visual communication.

It's a two-way street for Willemien: "Every day I'm able to help other people unleash their creativity and use it to achieve better results in their work gives me joy and renews my passion for drawing."
