Hi, I’m Katrin, a Berlin-based cross-disciplinary creative director with extensive experience across a wide range of design fields—from digital and print design to campaign concepts for both online and offline media, including video.

I specialize in creating products that captivate audiences and bring ideas to life. By helping clients define their brands and elevate their campaigns, I craft content that resonates and drives meaningful results — whether through traditional channels or emerging media.

With a background in fashion graphics and communication design, I’ve built a strong foundation in both creative design and strategic thinking. This education has shaped my ability to craft compelling, brand-driven experiences while providing a deep understanding of how materials, textures, and color choices can elevate a brand’s visual identity.

In 2009, I led the EMEA design team at Corbis in London, where I honed my leadership skills and adapted design strategies for global markets. After gaining experience in UI/UX design — including SoundCloud’s 2023 redesign — I returned to my roots in visual communication and brand development around 2018, bringing a diverse skill set and strategic approach to every project.

My goal is to integrate these experiences to deliver innovative, client-tailored, and holistic design solutions that connect with audiences and help businesses thrive in an ever-evolving landscape through bold, impactful design language.

Please get in touch.
