Lovestain is Stijn Van Doorslaer, a passionate graphic designer from Belgium, specialized in branding, identity and print design.

Stijn thrives to leave his mark on the world with an abstract and refreshing approach to the use of text. With a soft spot for wordplay and a hard-on for typography, his alias Lovestain embodies the synthesis of his goals and personality.

Lovestain kan alle kanten uit, maar zoekt net op de plaats die u maar niet gedefinieerd krijgt. Met een scherpe neus voor vormgeving wordt inhoud op de meest passende manier belicht.

U wil in het oog springen? Lovestain gaat aan de slag met inhoud, werpt zich
in het witte blad, orchestreert haast obsessief de ruimte, steeds met oog voor detail.
Een doeltreffend spel van letters, logo’s en layouts. Zorgvuldig worden wensen vertaald
naar uw werkelijkheid én die van uw klanten. U communiceert, Lovestain visualiseert.
