Complexity, clarified.
I design identities, editorial layouts and information graphics that make complex stories clear and engaging.

Super beautiful images! Delivered quickly and very pleasant communication with Jesper. I still look at his work with great pleasure every day and regularly discover new details in this beautiful piece of his!
A pleasant collaboration on the design of a company website and logo. Jesper is very creative, thinks along with you and takes his time for you. He is highly inventive in turning words into visuals and ideas into a clear structure. Highly recommended!
I had the pleasure of working with Studio Jesper Krijgsman for my single’s cover art, and I couldn’t be happier with the result! Jesper is a fantastic person to work with: meticulous, creative, and really dedicated to bringing a vision to life.
We discovered Jesper’s work by chance when his partner casually mentioned in our showroom that he created art as well. We fell in love with it the moment we saw it and immediately recognized its potential as an art print. Jesper has since become one of our top sellers—with that initial piece ranking among our top five best-selling works—and he consistently delivers his art in top quality, ready for immediate printing in any size.

Good to know
Jesper Krijgsman is a visual artist and graphic designer based in Amsterdam. His digital hypercollages of nature are published by LUMAS and Werk aan de Muur and have been shown in Toronto, Zurich and the Flower Art Museum in Aalsmeer. As a designer he creates album covers and release branding for musicians, starting with the album Illusions (2011), which has sold more than a million copies.
Release branding gives a single, EP or album one recognisable visual world. It starts with the cover and carries through to social posts, Spotify Canvas, video and print, so every touchpoint feels like the same release. It helps listeners remember the music, and it gives your campaign a clear look from announcement to release day.
At minimum a square cover, which is what I deliver as standard. Many releases also use social posts and stories for the announcement, a short vertical video or Spotify Canvas, a header for your artist profiles and a few press images. I can design these as part of a release branding package.
A single cover starts at €450, an EP cover at €750 and an album cover with back cover at €1,250. Full release branding, with the cover, social posts, Spotify Canvas and profile header, starts at €2,000. Licensing one of my existing artworks as a cover starts at €350. Every release is different, so I always send a proposal tailored to yours.
Use a square image of 3000 x 3000 pixels in JPG or PNG, in RGB colour. Keep text to the essentials and avoid borders, because the cover is mostly seen as a small thumbnail. I deliver every cover in this format, ready for your distributor.
