Studio

Arnold Aarssen

Arnold is StudioArte´s founder and creator, the pillar on which the core values of excellence and attention to details of the agency rest upon. He is the one who sits next to each team member, overseeing everything and tirelessly making sure everything is always perfect.

Despite being a creative with a strong vision, he maintains within the agency a healthy balance between creativity and business. He's  actively involved in the company's business strategy design, in project development, implementation, customer service... he also makes sure there is always a good bottle chilled in the refrigerator. Name it and I'll assure you Arnold is involved.

When he is not in the studio, you’ll find him by the ocean, 6 am sharp, deep in meditation or in his Alentejo retreat where he recharges with nature and a good bottle of wine or scouting remote Portuguese villages totally untouched by tourism. A big animal lover, he is inseparable from Matilda, his doggie and if you check his YouTube channel you'll find all the stories of strays and abandoned furry friends he rescues.

Iron on the outside, the sensibility of a real artist on the inside, he is StudioArte beacon of light.
