Bachelor of Arts Communication Design

I became a communication designer because I love to talk about other people’s dreams and visions and to put them into a design context. Branding in particular is often about visualising and staging the vision of a company. That’s why I’m always willing to think outside the box and come up with little surprises. Because if you dare to step out of your comfort zone and dare to do something, you will almost always be rewarded. So be brave and say “yes”.

Dear Friend – Friendship cards that make distance seem shorter

Friendships from a distance require more attention than usual, but it is not impossible. With personal questions, a little creativity and wit, you can put a smile on your friends’ faces with the next mail and show that distance can also feel very close.

Friends come and go, they say. But sometimes you find that one person who cannot be replaced. You don’t want them to disappear from your life, but moves or Corona restrictions make contact increasingly difficult. “Dear Friend” compensates for the spatial or emotional distance and manages to keep the friendship alive and intensify it through compassionate, appreciative and reflective exchanges.  “Dear Friend” consists of interactive Friendship Cards, which are divided into two sets. The cards accompany their weekly exchanges by asking reflective and appreciative questions. They build on each other and are written by taking turns, creatively personalized and then sent in an envelope. By both friends taking the time to regularly write analog messages to each other, the friendship is perceived much more consciously.

Grateful for so much love, support and good coffee.
