I entered
the design business quite late when I was 24. I´m now
in it for 4 years and still hungry of learning new stuff.
After my diploma in marketing & sales at a viennese university,
I figured out, that my former dreamjob - working at an advertising
agency as a client service member - has not much to do with
being creative, in the sense of how I interpret it. As I still
couldn´t believe that marketing didn´t give me
the space for my creativity I did a few other jobs related
to my study, hoping to find my passion.
Afterall I decided to take my hobby
(playing arround with photoshop and illustrator) more serious
and started to design my first websites. After several numbers
of layouts I got more into illustration and into print projects.
Business is hard, especially for a selfmade graphic designer,
but together with friends working in a familiar business we
founded a pool where we tried to support eachother and to
set up projects together. Beside that, i found 2 companies
to work with as a freelancer on a regular basis, in the field
of trendsports and lifestyle projects.
.... so much for the past
What does RICH:ART stands for?
1.Trying hard to be on the pulse of
graphic design and illustration and not to provide clients
with worn out stuff everybody else already has. My favourite
fieldes are trendsports- and lifestyle projects.
2. Constant improvement of my own projects
(creative playground), to give it to clients who are interested
in my work.
