Finished projects
so many different styles
I always design together with my client. As a customer, you always have certain ideas about the design. But in the end, I have the experience and the skills in graphic design. That is why I always make sure that the target audience is not forgotten because that is what it’s all about in the end. What is ugly to one person, is completely wonderful to another. Everybody has their preference. This is why you cannot find an unambiguous style in my design. It is and remains an interaction between people that always results in a special design.
