Balua

Balua is a small Swiss graphic studio based in Zurich that provides graphic services for small to medium-sized brands. At its core, Balua specializes in the design transformation of identities into visual presentations. My passion for typography developed through creating many wordmarks for my clients. The next step, expanding a wordmark into a typeface, was not far off.Originally, I trained as a carpenter. The foundation for becoming a graphic designer was laid when I attended the preparatory design course in Zurich. Afterward, I gained practical experience over several years as an intern at agencies and graphic studios. I then started my own business under the brand "Balua" as a graphic designer. Working with fonts is a passion I pursue alongside my client projects. In my free time, you can find me in beautiful places in nature – in the Swiss mountains or on the Atlantic coast in nearby countries, where I gather a lot of inspiration from people, nature, and culture.
