Horizonte Lecture Series
Poster Series

Horizonte is a student-run lecture programme at Bauhaus-Universität Weimar, inviting guests from architecture, urbanism, and neighbouring disciplines. Over six weeks, six posters were silkscreen printed in-house, working with two neon colours (yellow and orange). A custom Fraktur lettering functions as a temporary logo, staging tradition and transformation in parallel.

Unboxing Bauhaus
Exhibition Identity

The Bauhaus-Universität Weimar accepted an invitation from KunstHaus and Kunstraum to visit Potsdam in July and August. In the double exhibition Unboxing Bauhaus, students, alumni and teachers of fine art and visual communication presented their current artistic positions. The works on display, which span the fields of painting, drawing, sculpture, photography and performance, form a polyphonic panorama of young perspectives that address current social, political and ecological issues – often with an interdisciplinary, exploratory approach. Unboxing Bauhaus is a snapshot of a vibrant university – and an invitation to open the box and discover new spaces for thought and possibility.

PORT Magazin — To Hold To Host
Book

Gathering is a collective practice. It is not about eternalising individual names but about bringing voices together. Instead of looking ahead, we looked around on sweet duty, we hosted and held a gathering of gatherings. With a focus on collaborative work, the attention shifted from finished outcomes and singular authorship to the processes, contents, and means of production that shape them. This years PORT is turned inside out.
PORT Magazin, or simply PORT, has been published annually since 2003 and is conceived and designed each year by a new team under a new theme. The magazine is a student initiative at the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar.

In collaboration with Susan Arian, Lea Sailer & Mona Kerntke

Mini Beta
Typeface

A performative monospace ping-ponging between the digital sharpness of Eurostile (Aldo Novarese) and the mechanical quirks of OCR-A (American Type Founders). Balancing legibility at small sizes with confident curves at display scale, this typeface is neither purely mechanical nor entirely organic. Please welcome Mini Beta. A medium cut monospace typeface that push and pulls systematic accuracy with personal warmth; think mini, win big. First typeface attempt. Trials available on request.

TAKE A SEAT™
Exhibition Identity

Sitting means not only lingering, but also experiencing and reflecting. This limited-endless exhibition created a space for encounters in which 42 works can not only be viewed, but also enjoyed with leaning support – TAKE A SEAT™! invited visitors to pause, engage, and connect more deeply with student work — blending comfort with contemplation. Where does space end and community begin? The room doesn’t tell a story; it invites you to tell one. This exhibition was developed and designed in the course Bauhaus Inhouse, which presents the projects and courses of the Typography Professorship at the end of the semester.

Berliner Nachhaltigkeitsplaner
Book

During my internship at Lamm & Kirch, I designed the Sustainability Planner 2025 for the Office for Education for Sustainable Development (SBNE) of the Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf district in Berlin. The free pocket calendar (19 × 26 cm) focuses on Food and Sustainability, contextualising the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals through nutrition, health, and environmental impact. It features global and local case studies, Berlin-based initiatives, and relevant projects and events throughout 2025. The publication is publicly distributed to educational institutions, non-profits, and civic organisations, and funded by the Berlin Senate’s Clean City programme.

Certified Bauhaus Master Lectures
Identity System, Poster

In the Visual Communication Lecture Series, guests from the fields of design, art and science share their expertise with students and lecturers. The topic of ‘Certification’ was at the heart of the design this winter semester: Who certifies whom? And what is behind it? A 70x100 cm poster was designed for the announcement and produced as a silk screen print in cyan and bronze in the printing workshop at Bauhaus-Universität. Following their presentations, the individual guests received certificates that were produced with overprinting and copper foiling. Accompanying animations, produced by Ivan Djambov, provided insights behind the scenes of the design and documented the workshops in which the visual realisation was created.

Love Will Tear Us A Party

Exhibition

On display is a window work with kissing erotes, a typographic animation that responds to the lyrics of FKA twigs' album, and a sound work that fills the space with an auditory reflection of the themes. In addition, the performance “Never Never Land” by Jonah Martensen took place on July 11th as part of the performance series accompanying the exhibition. The 11m3 project space was staged as a gathering place for a whole day. On the occasion of the Finissage on 16 July, the video work “Summer (21)” by Jonah Martensen was shown all day in the project space.

Horizonte
Brochure

Brochure design for the student architecture initiative Horizonte. Reflexion: Objects In The Mirror Are Closer Than They Appear is a series of lectures and talks at the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar that deals with the professional past and future. @horizonte_weimar invited former students from different decades of the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar, who have taken various career paths, that discussed the impact of their studies and professional life on their self-image and their professional past and future. The symposium aimed to encourage in-depth reflection on the identification and self-image with one’s own work, studies and “after”.

dankEconogy1_ALIENVillage
Exhibition Identity

With dankEconogy1_ALIENVillage, artist Sahjan Kooner has created a multiverse encompassing ideas and processes around migration. The exhibition is constructed as a complex environmental installation that includes stories, migrants, materials, houses, biologies, technologies, mycologies and futures. Using the language of science fiction, from film to video games, the artist not only evokes a haunting, but also creates an imaginative multiple reality defined by hope and love.
The exhibition came about in collaboration with Eastside Projects in Birmingham and UP Projects in London. The exhibition has since been shown online and in the main gallery of Eastside Projects and arrived at Kunsthal Gent in February 2024.

NOTDEF GLYPH I LOVE YOU
Book

Roses are red, violets are blue, NOTDEF GLYPH, I LOVE YOU is an obsession with not defined glyphs: an homage to creativity detached from constraints. It celebrates a typographic niche, an expression for the gap, the missing link in typefaces. In digital type-making, the Not Defined glyph acts as a placeholder when a font cannot source render a character. More and more, this absence is embraced by type-designers to derive from the standard empty, narrow rectangle. Over 160 unique approaches from more than 70 type-designers and foundries are curated and showcased in this collection. A treatise to unstandardised design. Above all, NOTDEF GLYPH ILY deals with defining the undefined.

summaery2023 – Typografie & Schriftgestaltung
Poster

This is one of the 100 best posters from Germany, Austria and Switzerland of 2023. This very extra(vagant) poster announcing Bauhaus-Universität Weimar’s annual typography exhibition for “summaery2023”, was designed together with Johanna Mehner. With kitschy script and over-exaggerated ornamental elements this poster is one of The pick-me posters of 2023. Squealing, it’s too much to handle, almost illegible.
