Peter Zuiderwijk
Peter Zuiderwijk is a designer based in The Hague, known for his research-driven, collaborative design approach. He co-leads Collective Works with Karin Mientjes, a studio dedicated to participatory design that involves people from diverse backgrounds.
Their projects focus on socio-spatial questions and emphasize the entire design process—from observation and analysis to execution. The results include activist campaigns, situational branding, spatial proposals, and social interventions, all aimed at creating meaningful impact beyond traditional graphic design.
Collective Works is also part of Constructlab, an international design-build network. Constructlab brings together designers, builders, sociologists, urban planners, graphic designers, and educators to merge conceptual work with hands-on construction. The network fosters a collaborative spirit, ensuring projects move seamlessly from ideas to tangible structures while blending creative exploration with practical solutions.
For the Royal Academy of Art (KABK), he’s the graduation show & impact supervisor for the Master Photography & Society and visiting tutor for the Master Interior Architecture.
