Studio Dumbar is a Dutch graphic design agency.
Studio Dumbar was founded by Gert Dumbar in 1977, in the Hague. [1] In 2003, the studio moved to Rotterdam, as Michel de Boer took over the creative direction, after Gert Dumbar's retirement. In 2011 Liza Enebeis became the studio's third creative director. The studio was acquired by Dept, a digital marketing firm, in 2016.
Studio Dumbar describes itself as “an international design agency specialised in visual branding and online branding”.
Fragmented, sometimes complex to the edge of chaos, and layered with complex typography, many Dumbar projects in the early 1980s caused consternation among advocates of a more ordered aesthetic. But by the late 1980s many European designers were mimicking Studio Dumbar's approach, causing Gert Dumbar to place a moratorium on these techniques within his firm. [2]
