Raffinaderij represents me, Raf Thys, as an independent graphic and digital designer, located in Hasselt (BE). Obviously the name is derived from my first name, but I’m a designer so of course there’s more to it. "Raffinaderij" is the dutch word for a refinery. In my opinion design is the refinement of a rough idea or concept. It’s my day to day challenge to make rough ideas come to life. I’ve been doing this for about 15 years for some of the most influential agencies in Belgium. The Raffinaderij is little creative factory giving your ideas the high quality treatment they deserve!
