 Visual Communication
 This is a work-in-progess, never finished, always changing digital project or website. It’s continuously developing—as I grow, it grows with me. Come by every now and then. This is a work-in-progess, never finished, always changing digital project or website. It’s continuously developing—as I grow, it grows with me. Come by every now and then. Chris(he/him) studied Communication Design(B.A.) with a focus on typography, editorial design and analogue printing techniques at the Academy of Fine Arts Saar and is furthermore enrolled in the Design Studies(—M.A.) master program at BURG Giebichenstein University of Art and Design Halle. While living in Leipzig he works as a freelance designer for visual communication and as a journalistic filmmaker for the culinary industry as well as political and cultural institutions. Next to being a designer he understands himself increasingly as a humble reader (and writer). Currently he is especially interested in a post-interventionist understanding of design while working in the editorial team of Neuwerk Magazine for Design Studies.
