Linnorm — Typeface [WIP]
Linnorm is my second attempt at designing a typeface, but the first time trying to make it legible and actually usable. I also started this typeface in a workshop on the basics of type design.
Linnorm is based on the distorted curves found in moiré-like patterns, although this reference is hardly—if at all—visible.
The typeface is still work in progress.

Typeface / 2019–Ongoing
Kaspar — Typeface
My first encounter with type design within the framework of a workshop on the basics of type design led by Sandra Winter at the Faculty of Design.
It is constructed entirely without any curvatures and based on 0°, 45° and 90° angles.
Mapping the Bermuda-Triangle
In the block course Typography IV we were divided into teams of three people each and assigned topics/terms for which we were to design a digital product, among other things; each project was to be completed within 24 hours.
Our group had the coordinate 25°N 71°W—the Bermuda Triangle. We designed an interactive map (using the ePub format for quick implementation) on which the user can click through different levels of information, such as the last known position of ships or airplanes. By superimposing these layers, new information levels and contexts are created.
In collaboration with Natalie Grebe & Niko Ostojic

How To — Vinyl
The idea behind this 7-inch vinyl is to explain how to operate a turntable in a easy to understand and fun way. The operating instructions are printed on the cover and can be heard as audio as well.
Initiated by Rade Matic at the Faculty of Design.
In collaboration with Paul Jürgens
Thanks to Peter Wolff for the great images
Listen to the operation instructions

Neue Texte – Was is Typografie?
Publication with texts by students of the Faculty of Design on the question "What is typography?
We asked ourselves this question in the first typography lesson at the beginning of our studies. The texts were written after the first two semesters of typography and form partly answers, partly follow-up questions and content-related discussions of the topic.

Map – Where To
This map was designed as a guide for applicants and first-year students so that you can explore the Mathildenhöhe on the day of the entrance examination and find possible places to pass time or grab something to eat.
On the day of the entrance examination, the card was hung up as an A1 poster. In addition, we have also designed it as an A3 card to take away.
