    Social Media Monday | How to optimize your Instagram content

    When I was a kid, I used to bury myself on the sofa with a pile of books I had borrowed from the library. Some things seem not to change that much. We haven’t had a sofa for years (or TV either) but the pile of books is still essential part of my everyday life.

  • Ugly today, brilliant tomorrow

    One of my clients once said that they literally thought I was going crazy when I presented the first sketch round for their event rebranding. This particular part of the branding and design process is my favourite.  It takes courage to leap to the unknown and design the future today. That’s definitely not an easy …
