Experience I got to know the professional life as a graphic designer during my apprenticeship at Switzerland‘s most succesfull web agency namics ag. As I wasn’t completely satisfied with the amount of creativity in my everyday work, I developped a lot of projects in my freetime, where I tought myself some type design and also html coding. When I entered the school of arts in Lausanne (ÉCAL) I started up the graphic design collective STRAIGHT IN YOUR FACE with a friend of mine. I worked as an independent and on a freelance basis for clients in various commercial fields such as architecture, street wear, events and music. Right after my studies I got hired by Antistatique. net, for whom I already worked as a freelancer for 2 years. As the first and only graphic designer, I was responsible for all the web and print design and the design quality control.

A fanzine for the swiss streetwear brand Alias One. The title typeface is one of the first fonts I ever designed some years ago, and its irregular shapes fitted to the uncomfortable and sometimes bizarre mood of the film.

Rather a type tool than a classic font. The monotype skeleton font is designed to be flexible for any kind of compression or extension and for a maximum of different stroke widths. GT Skeletor provides you to directly create the cuts needed in your layouting programme in a playfull way without any boundaries.

Based on the principle of creating my own fonts, just at the very moment I need them, I designed another skeleton. I’m then using fontlab’s function for making subtle automised changes to generate the whole aesthetic of a typeface. The results vary from calm textfonts to expressive and sometimes illegible display typefaces. As a regular fontlab user, one can create a new font within 5 to 10 minutes.
