Slanted in Amsterdam: The Rodina

For its 41st issue, Slanted checked out Amsterdam’s design scene and visited a selection of the city’s most brilliant minds—creatives and designers located in the charming capital of the Netherlands. Amongst others we were happy to visit Tereza and Vit from The Rodina, meet them in their studio, and talk about a lot of relevant and interesting design-related topics!

The Rodina has been researching performativity within graphic design since 2015 and coined the term performative design (in the field of visual communication) which is further described in the Action to Surface publication. In their work, Tereza and Vit often explore the spatial and interactive possibilities of virtual environments as a space for new thoughts and aesthetics that come forward from between culture and technology.

The Rodina’s work can be found in the Slanted Magazine #41—Amsterdam. Additionally we shot a video interview with them, talking about their point of view on design and opinions about the future. Take a look at the Amsterdam issue and the video platform for diverse opinions, impressions, inspiration, and motivation!
