Client Reviews
“Martijn showed us the added value of sketching in our daily work. Sketching on this level is very usable to explain concepts and convince clients.” – Mathijs Sommeijer, Deerns Nederland
“Martijn and his colleague organized a sketching workshop for our research group, which was an amazing experience. They listened very well to our goals with the workshop and studied our work to customize the workshop accordingly. The result was an extremely useful workshop. We had lots of fun with the many and diverse exercises and it was very helpful to watch Martijn sketch himself. During the workshop, everybody improved significantly in his/her sketching skills, which was great to see. Most importantly, the exercises were very inspirational and tailored to our work. They gave us many ideas to incorporate sketching in our work. This workshop will definitely change our work in a very positive way.” – Karin Slegers, KU Leuven
About the instructor
Martijn van de Wiel is an independent Dutch creative entrepreneur and design teacher with a background in Industrial and Spatial Design. Operating from his studio in The Hague, he teaches courses and runs workshops in the field of Design Sketching.
The institutions he is affiliated with include: Technical University Delft, Technical University Eindhoven, and The Hague University of Applied Science. His sketching workshops, packaged under the Design Sketching label, include design schools, corporate teams and life long learners.
Martijn is on a mission to help aspiring and professional designers unlock their creative potential. He believes all humans are creative by nature, yet our risk-averse tendencies often block the ability to tap into our creativity. He is convinced that training exploratory sketching muscles is an effective way to build confidence and allow creativity to flow.
This belief has been driving him for more than two decades to share his insights with a worldwide audience. Through hands-on classes, keynote talks, and a firm online presence, Martijn keeps beating the drum for sketching as a vehicle to support thinking and stimulate the imagination.
