POTLOODGUM

Hi, Potloodgum is a design studio run by Tjerk Jippe Dijkstra.

I teach UX/UI, Design Research and Web development at NHL Stenden at a Bachelors Design School called CMDLWD.

I like helping people by making easy, fun and quircky web applications for them. Like an automatic photobooth for a wedding or a website that generates fun design challenges for students at sprint.cards, or bookable timeslot tool called Hamaki.

Yeah, too many side projects and some analog photography.

Have fun, check out my stuff, and if you want to reach me: hello@potloodgum.com!

Photography

Black and white picture of laundry hanging on a washing line the clouds have summer pattern and the picture is taken from a low angle, the clothes seem to be from an older gentleman. It almost appears that some clothes are floating in the sky.
Grainy black and white picture of a tree and two doves seeming to run away from something that happend, it's taken from the perspective of a human looking up at the sky.
A frozen lake in Finland, washed out blue and white colors. A person wearing a yellow jacket is taking a picture of the lake.
A big rocky cliff in Portugal, one wave is hitting the rock, you can see the outline of the coast. One fisherman is standing on the cliffside, he is far away and seems small. Clouds are stretching far, it seems warm but cold.
High contrast picture taken from a low angle, you see a rope and a person seems to be rappeling down. The person is framed by dark leaves from the tree.
A view through a window of frozen trees and branches, lot's of houseplants are stacked on a audio system, it's in black and white.
A high contrast picture of a woman standing in the North Sea in low water, the water reaches her ankles. She seems to be one silhouette. Her clothes seems to be matching the wavy pattens of the water. She is looking at the person taking the picture. The sea stretches far, and the horizon is flat and almost infinite
A black and white picture of a reflection of a dock in the water, the water distorts and ripples the reflection. It almost looks like a giant rock surface.
A picture taken from a fast moving car, green mountains are passing by. In the middle there seems to be a steam cloud. The foreground seems to be a high grass of diffrent colours, blurred by the speed of the car.
A black and white landscape photo of a lonely tower standing at the end of the road, there are some animals grazing around it, clouds seem to be stretching far. The road seems gravel and barely used.
A black and white portrait picture of a female face looking at the camera, only her eyes and hair are visible. The bottom-middle of picture seems to be torn or underdeveloped, her eyes are looking directly at the lens of the camera.
A landscape picture of a dyke, long and flat, but taken askew the horizon seems to be going up. A small silhouette of a person walking is in the middle of the photo. The sky contains a fingerprint, a remainder of the development process.
A black and white and grainy picture of reeds, only one fluffy reed seems to be in focus. In the background there a many blurry stems.
A picture of a red lightbeam traveling along a road. The road is clearly marked with white paint. In the far distance there is a small streetlight. The red laser light seems to brighten the picture with red neon colors.
