Hello. I am a graphic designer from Berlin. When I was a child, I started to discover urban typography and got addicted to understanding letters, their anatomy and the possibilities to play around with them. Through that I realized that I am not on the hunt for perfect beauty, but rather the possibility to create characters with distinct personalities. After receiving my diploma in communication design in 2010, I did a four month internship at Sagmeister Inc. in New York. Now I run my own studio in Berlin and spend quite a lot of time experimenting within the context of type. I teach typography at the design akademie berlin in Kreuzberg and give workshops. Besides creating typefaces, I do editorial design, visual identities, printed materials and websites. Check out my work here.
