Logo, Icons & Interface
Evercloud is a project management software for small and medium-sized enterprises and colaboration teams. The startup had already placed the technical corner stones on which I was permitted to build the graphic user inferface. The project included the logo and a basic Corporate Design. The logo combines the cloud and the two initials of the company’s name.

Webshop
Vaucher is an online sports shop that was to be revised. The works shown are drafts of what the navigation and look of a sports page looked like for me in 2016. It was important for me to work with many moods on the homepage, which establish a connection to the products. Navigation was the main issue for creating an effective shop. I believe that the search parameters are essential for the purchase process.

The agency Frontal, where I work since nearly 3 years, trusted me to create our website new. I felt very honored, as the website is the signboard of the company and distinctive for the Corporate Design. The head note of the company acts as navigation on the front page. In order to give the user a personal insight into our firm, a short film was made of each employee while working. The references were configured in an unconventional pattern, which enabled many options – never disregarding Mobile first.

The configuration of a website for architecture usually has the advantage of the client being willing to dare something and has good pictures. However the focus must be that the User can find the relevant topics in minimum time. I think the mix of design and functionality is quite successful.

The website of fashion manufacturer Asoni was also an exciting project, in which I participated. We were given very good photo material during the briefing, so that we could work with large photos. The works seen here are from the creation process. Many of these ideas have also been incorporated into the final version of the page.

Flyers
In addition to my career in the agencies, I also have always had considerable interest in the communication and marketing of non-commercial cultural events and productions. In consultation with my employers, this made it possible for me to take private assignments in various areas and implement them. I created a variety of flyers, posters, CD covers and websites in this work.
