Artist Rutger Paulusse Turns Geometry into Living, Breathing Sculptures » Design You Trust — Design Daily Since 2007

Rutger Paulusse is a Dutch visual artist, art director, and designer from Eindhoven currently based in Amsterdam, known for his masterful fusion of geometry, color, light, and materiality across digital and physical mediums.

His career began with a love for graffiti and typography, later evolving into a refined practice that bridges 3D design, illustration, screen printing, and sculptural installations. Using layered acrylics, gradients, and clean minimalist compositions, Paulusse creates ethereal “lightscapes” — artworks that blur the boundaries between the virtual and tangible, glowing as though illuminated from within. His pieces are characterized by soft textures and spatial harmony, inviting viewers to move around them to experience how light shifts across their surfaces, reinforcing his recurring theme of perception and movement. Rutger has exhibited internationally, collaborated with global brands like Google and Sabine Marcelis, and consistently explores how digital aesthetics translate into physical form through his “New Dutch Minimalism” collection and immersive displays.
