This is saf~
Stijn & friends

Welcome to thisissaf.com, the official website of Stijn van der Pol. As an artist, visual marketeer and entrepreneur, Since 2005 I have been on a journey between design and art, looking for the boundaries between the both. What I found? The boundaries are fluid and the journey a never-ending discovery.

All about the message

Design and art are much alike. Both disciplines help turn an idea – a thought, a concept – into a visible reality. Just like art, good design tells a story. And just like design, great art is all about getting a message across. With saf.studio I help brands convey their message, while at friendmade.fm I offer a platform for artists to show theirs. Finally at mindmirror.art, you’ll find my personal art, engraved on a mirror, one message at a time.

Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33

Make friends. Create art

In 2019 I created friendmade.fm, an international online art gallery that offers unique fineart prints and interior products to art lovers and design enthusiasts. The goal behind friendmade® was to create a space where artists feel free to create art without limitations, while offering them a place to connect to other artists and together create, sell and promote their unique works.
