Roderick Polhuijs

With the arrival of Roderick (ir.) in 2015, zootz has affirmed its versatility. Graduated from Hogeschool van Hall Larenstein & Birmingham City University, Roderick congenitally is a landscape designer. Here at zootz he fulfils both roles as artdirector and project manager. zootz comes up with the most creative solutions, and Roderick pulls of everything with ease and flair, others do not realize how much work it takes to actually make it happen!

Bart Bauhuis

Bart is our graphic gastronome. After graduating at the Graphics Lyceum of Utrecht in 2006, Bart started off in newspapers but quickly switched to Witteveen+Bos, where he learned a great deal. A wide interest persuaded him to work as a freelancer, allowing him space for exotic travels as well. In the zootz-team he’s excessively particular about details. Paper, screen, business card or abri poster. Everything is measured to the last millimetre or pixel; no client will lay eyes on it before perfection is achieved. Deadline? That’ll put Bart in eight gear!

Julie Verhoeff

Julie (MA) came to strengthen the zootz-team in 2007 as consultant. Concept and strategy are leading in her work. After her Art History and Archeology Degree -specialized in Architecture- at the Utrecht University she worked at advertising agency BMB (Amsterdam) and afterwards over six years at the Central Museum of Utrecht and the Museon in The Hague.
