In honor of the 50th anniversary of Het Nationale Ballet, Sanoma Media asked me to create a high-end dance magazine. ‘Vive La Danse’ shows an in-depth view of the world of ballet, both in front and behind the scenes. The first issue was handed out to Queen Beatrix at the gala evening.

Result
A timeless document that
celebrates the craft of ballet and dance.

An ode to ballet, the art of dance, craft, and discipline.

From content to concept, from typeface selection to visual design, the limited edition magazine is an honorable contribution to the art of ballet.
