Marije Vogelzang is a Dutch "food", or "eating",[1] designer who focuses on how people design their food habits, ways and rituals.[2][3] She regularly works as a designer for organizations and a food industry consultant.[2] She became the head of the food department at the Design Academy Eindhoven in 2014.[1] Her 2017 "Volumes" project focused on the design of eating devices which help eaters think their plates are fuller than they are to reduce overeating.[4][5]
Vogelzang's works include Feed Love[6] and Eat Love Budapest.[7] They are multimedia installations that combine elements of sculpture, performance art, and interactive technology.
Life and career[edit]
in 2004, Vogelzang met Piet Hekker who was proposed to start a restaurant/Food Design studio called Proef (which means both "taste" and "test" in Dutch) in Rotterdam.[8] Within a year this meeting caused these two people to start working together. The collaboration was the opening of the Second Proef in Amsterdam for experimental dinner concepts.[9]
In 2008, Vogelzang published her first book called Eat Love: Food Concepts by Eating-Designer Marije Vogelzang. The same year, she had her first solo exhibition at Axis Gallery in Tokyo.[10]
In 2011, instead of focusing on her restaurants, she started to spend more time developing her design practice. This was when she created projects such as Eat Love Budapest which was in the form of installation/performance and is among her most significant works.[11]
In 2015, she founded the Dutch Institute of Food and Design.[12]
In 2019, Vogelzang created "Food and Design Dive", a live online course. Her other courses include "Creative Strategies for Sensitive Pirates", "Advanced Dive", and "Summer School".[13]
Bibliography[edit]

Eat Love Budapest[edit]
During a 4-day performance held in a white space, 10 separate spaces is created. Each of the spaces is divided into two parts by a white textile: one part is a strange room where a Hungarian participant sits while cannot look outside through the textile.
In this project Vogelzang considers "feeding" as a universal language and explores the relationship between people and food.[16]
