If This Isn't Nice, What Is? (2013), Kurt Vonnegut
Design is magic in the visual chaos!
I am a creative, innovative and solution-oriented graphic designer with a hands-on experience in independently handling creative design projects. I have a passion for illustration, editorial design, web design and brand development, merging the power of creativity with thoughtful concepts.
Interdisciplinarity in my practice is coming right up naturally, since every single topic I dedicate myself to brings specific challenges; and the need to adapt requires different tools, techniques and approach. In other words, I am a strong believer that the content determines the form and also that in most cases the medium is the message.
