Who are you?

My name is Els Gillisjans. I’m a freelance graphic designer living and working in Brussels and Ghent.

On which project are you currently working on?

Currently I’m working on a website for a tree plantation and shop.


I mostly do visual and user interface design. But I also love designing logo’s and corporate identities.

What do you like to do when you are not working?

In my spare time I try to dance as much as I can. I love contemporary dance, especially improvisation and movement research.

I also love meeting with friends for dinner, drinks or partying in my city.

Song you would like to make us discover?

It’s very hard to chose just one song. 🙂
Maybe an old Autechre song. I’ve always like abstract electronic music because it triggers my imagination.

I also want to add this song of Bobby Womack, because of it’s incredible energy.

A quote, a poem, an advice, which follows you everywhere?

Everything you can imagine is real
― Pablo Picasso
 

Niets is zo mooi als de frisheid van intuitie
.

Nothing is as beautiful as the freshness of intuition
― Jan Hoet

How do you feel at Le Phare?

I feel very happy at Le Phare. There is always a positive and good vibe, thanks to Hanna and the team.
