Projects

This portfolio features a curated selection of past work that I can share in full, clear of shared agency attribution. Expand any row to view screens, awards, and collaborators. While most of these projects are over a decade old, their design and execution have stood the test of time. I remain proud to present them here.

01 Coffee Circle Brand, Design, Concepts and Packaging

For over a decade, I have been a full-time part of the great team at Coffee Circle. Working alongside a wonderful group of people, we completed several major overhauls of the brand. We built a simpler, more intuitive online shop and designed entirely new physical packaging. It is incredibly rewarding to use design to support a company that makes a real-world difference. There is always more in the pipeline, and of course... the coffee is great.

02 Jan Kath Website Screendesign, Development and Concept

Working full-time at oktober agency, I developed this award-winning website for Jan Kath from initial concept to final deployment. It was an honor to collaborate with such a renowned designer and his team. To translate the appeal of their printed catalogs into a digital format, I designed a side-scrolling interface focused on highlighting their extensive imagery and carpet designs, which could easily be hung like paintings on a wall. Over 10 years later, the core concept remains highly effective.

03 Förderverein Realschule Design, Development, Concept

A "Förderverein" lives or dies on two things: whether anyone knows it exists, and whether people trust it enough to give it money every year. Both are solved the same way — by being visible about what you decide and where the money goes.

What started as a personal exercise to explore Kirby CMS and AI turned into a larger commitment: stepping up as Vice President to help wherever I can.

04 Zeit-Räume Ruhr Development

In collaboration with the agency FREIWILD Kommunikation, i developed this award-winning project of the heart. Medalled with the German Design Awards 2018 with the jury statement: „With this platform, a good idea was implemented in a modern and coherent, but above all authentic way. Exciting.”

05 Boesner Kunstportal Design, Concept and Development

For Boesner, I designed a dynamic, modular portal combining editorial content with community features for artists and performers. Years after its launch, the platform remains online, thriving, and visually relevant.

06 JeKits Concept, Design and Communication

Building digital infrastructure for public and educational institutions requires prioritizing clarity and maintainability over short-lived trends. Designing JeKits with a structured, component-driven approach ensured that the platform remained functional, accessible, and easily maintainable for more than ten years.

07 Oktober Agency Development, Concept and Case Studies

Building the website for your own employer is always a delicate task. With the buildup of a webteam at Oktober, we took the time to present our team with a modern and appealing new website.

08 bpc AG Concept and Design

Alongside a new brand identity developed in-house by our team, a fresh digital presentation was required for the SAP consulting firm bpc. I designed the corporate website with a focus on structuring complex B2B content. The interface utilized distinct geometric layouts, such as diagonal headers and diamond-shaped UI elements, to clearly organize consulting services, SAP solutions, and career opportunities.

09 Cleobadtra Concept and Screendesign

I developed the core concepts and modern screen designs for an editorial platform focused on accessible bathrooms. The visual direction established a premium, uplifting aesthetic using fresh colors, clean typography, and intuitive navigation. Following my design handoff, the technical build was managed externally, and the final live site diverged from this initial vision.

10 Design Fragments Sketches, Concepts and Design

Not every idea makes it through the concept and development process. This is a collection of visual explorations, early drafts, and design experiments. They are kept here because these concepts and their execution remain strong in their own right.

Working with Several agencies and freelance work

☝️ I have been full-time at Coffee Circle for over ten years and only occasionally partner with select freelance clients.
