Since I’m not quite ready to risk my life through the perils of the high seas or to the infinite dangers that await us between the stars, I’m glad to be born in the age of the digital revolution.
This urge to explore new worlds was always a part of me, and I learned to combine it with my skills as a creative designer. Now I try with each of my works to build immersive, engaging experiences. As a graphic designer, I have touched many exciting aspects of my profession. From advertising to branding, from print to digital design, there is almost no facette of my work I haven’t touched yet. And yet, there is still so much to learn and discover. Which, apart from enjoying creating stunning visuals of value, passionates me most. On the following pages, I showcase a few special projects that I am most proud of and think show my range as a designer best.
My inquisitive mind was never content with just the surface of things and I was never too afraid of failure. The things you learn on the way are the defining moments of life for me.
Besides my upbringing, this mindset was probably influenced the most by my love for skateboarding. The sheer learning curve and roughness of this lifestyle can only be overcome by either raw talent and exceptional body control or the iron will of not giving up no matter what. But where’s the fun in that? Well, pushing each other by learning a new trick or cheering on your friends when they found a new fun way to express themselves on the skateboard is what skateboarding is about.
The fascination for motorcycles was planted through the stories of my father how he used to dry his hair by a quick ride through the town he lived in. And when my friends all got into old bikes I knew I had to build my own. Now almost 6 years later I had any imaginable part of a bike in my hands, and it is the same for me here. From the beginning, I wanted to know how this thing below me works down to the very last screw.
On my last surf trip, the idea grew to shape a surfboard. My friends were no help at all, «Too difficult» was the tenor from most. This was unsatisfactory as I had a clear idea of how I want my surfboard to behave, I started to dive into countless hours of technical material about all things related to shaping and performance and built my very first, very own board.
