Über mich
I am a designer, lecturer and podcaster. As a designer I have worked internationally with multinational corporations, advertising agencies, cultural organisations, publishers and start-ups. I am also the founder of the New Art School founded in 2009, a community of likeminded individuals committed to creating the next generation of artists and designers through a curriculum that is centred on observation and hand, heart, eye coordination. Today’s designers must have a deep understanding of both traditional & digital skills and fully engage with the new technologies that are reshaping our lives. In 2019 I also founded Design Education Forum that brings specialists from all over the world, to share their teaching experience and their similarities and differences in teaching Art & Design. As a podcaster I am the founder, producer and host of Design Education Talks podcast and the producer and host of Designer Talks podcast by the Chartered Society of Designers in the United Kingdom.

We live in a world where visuality becomes increasingly more important. The messages of individuals, corporations and institutions to masses they want to reach is more and more channeled through well designed, manipulative 2D visuals. Therefore in our age Visual Communication Design discipline which brings up multi-tasked professionals, sought after all around the world, has become of remarkable importance to all those who do not want their message to be ignored.
