Journal The price of packaging in specialty coffee

I have no special talent, I'm just passionately curious.

 

Hi, my name is Chris. I work as a Designer & Developer at Coffee Circle in Berlin and sometimes i freelance from Bad Bentheim.


The statement above is an alleged quote by Albert Einstein. Currently at the age of 44, i gathered experiences as concepter, designer & developer for more than half of my life. With attention to detail and a huge thirst for knowledge i love my job and try to show it in every aspect of my work. Not entirely without talent one might say, but certainly through curiousity ✌️

At Coffee Circle i try to focus on working as a Screendesigner, sometimes i just can't keep my finger from the codebase though.
