In my work, I draw on systemic visions of the future, futuristic technologies, and space exploration. I propose alphabetic characters that have become structures—parts of a spaceship’s infrastructure or machine modules. “To boldly go where no one has gone before”
Cyber
My illustrations are inspired by a long-standing fascination with cyberpunk aesthetics and various science fiction narratives.

Help others understand dyslexia
Help Others Understand Dyslexia uses typography as a tool for empathy. By intentionally breaking the traditional rules of legibility, I aim to disrupt the reading experience in a way that mirrors the frustrations many dyslexic people face. Through this experimental typeface (Flux), which distorts and manipulates letterforms, I hope to spark conversation and build greater awareness around dyslexia and challenge conventional design.

Remembering Veronika
Remembering Veronika is a tribute to our late friend, visual artist Veronika Bažaliková (*1978 — †2023). It recalls friendships formed during summer art symposia in eastern Slovakia. The typeface used, Anonym, originated in this shared context. Created by digitising anonymous scratched inscriptions found on the walls of an old mill in the village of Košarovce during the OpenSpace symposium in 2014, it bears raw traces of presence, absence, and memory.
PUSH
Typography exploration based on a modular grid of cubes. Pushing between structure and movement, transforming letterforms into sculptural compositions.

Customtype REAL
The custom typeface “Real” is an expressive display font and, as a variable font for a selection of characters, can be adapted to a wide variety of end formats. As a monospaced font with around 180 letters and accents, numbers, and punctuation marks, it allows for concise visual presentations. Heavy, physical forms with deep white spaces and changing contrast points create a sense of movement and depth, light and shadow, refraction and distortion.

Experimental Type
This poster is the result of experimenting with outlines, repetition, and digital distortion. I explored different online tools to manipulate typography, breaking down letterforms into fragmented lines and textures. The process focuses on pushing type beyond readability, turning it into a visual pattern and atmosphere rather than pure information.
Auto Grotesk
Auto Grotesk bridges centuries of typographic production—linking the tactile liveliness of wooden letters with the precision of digital drawing. Conceived as a wood type for letterpress printing, it was shaped through digital drawing, prototyping, and laser-cutting.
Rather than a faithful revival, Auto Grotesk draws from multiple sources—echoing early sans serifs that paved the way for Akzidenz Grotesk, such as Bauer & Co.’s Cirkular Grotesk and Otto Weisert’s Breite Fette Grotesk. Each style is designed individually, like in traditional type cutting, preserving the charmingly naive irregularities—because let’s face it, perfect is boring. By dialing back optical corrections and mixing rectangular and circular shapes, the letters swing to a lively, unconventional rhythm—true to the material.
Designed to thrive in both print and pixel, Auto Grotesk softens the sharp sterility of contemporary sans-serifs, translating the quirks of ink squash and paper pressure into a smoother digital texture. Its variable axes of weight and pressure let designers literally tweak how the letters “squish,” carrying the spirit of the press straight into the screen.
Auto Grotesk is a love letter to imperfection: proof that progress and patina can coexist—and that, yes, even in the digital age, wood still leaves a mark.

Counterfeit
Counterfeit is a type design exercise with the objective of using the least amount of modules for the letterforms. What resulted is that at large scale it becomes display, hard to read and decipher each glyph, but at small scales the gaps between modules close and becomes more readable.
TEMPS DE FLORS
This risograph print is composed using a wide range of typefaces that spell out the track titles from the rap album Temps de Flors by Mallorcan rap artist Pode. The piece has been translated into black and white for this magazine edition, while preserving the characteristic texture and material quality of risograph printing. The diversity of typographic styles, shapes and visual rhythms reflects the album’s own spirit: a varied, vibrant body of work full of life, contrasts, and expressive energy
holding, (shift)ing
holding, (shift)ing is a textile installation about care work, mental load, and domestic labour. Seven white aprons become a tablecloth through stitching and embroidery; a cyclical poem and childhood drawings surface in thread and print. An archive book gathers tests, samples, and foils from production, held by eyelets and safety pins, while a translucent flyer uses rotation and layering to make hidden weight perceptible.
SPRACHMUSKEL
Communication. Strength builds up like a muscle. Phrases are projected as texture onto a continuously pulsating structure. The beauty of language becomes visible through the visual abstraction of letter forms.
Be Kind
This custom lettering draws inspiration from the shape of a heart, which dictated the construction of all the letters. Custom lettering created for the Type Campus 2025 call for entries.
Standard Singlish
How should Singlish be perceived in our society today? Is it an incorrect form of English? Or a unique language that is deserving of greater respect?
Standard Singlish challenges viewers to reconsider the status of Singlish by introducing a new Singlish typographical system together with a set of educational materials that reimagine a future where Singlish is formalised.
Maaster Sanz
Maaster Sanz is a variable font family of three styles that uses deliberate interpolation “errors” as a visual language. By researching technical failures, the designer developed methods – reversed contours, changed component order, and incorrect path directions – controlled via Weight and Glitch axes. This turns technical flaws into a generative tool, allowing users to decide how far letterforms “break,” bridging conventional type design with experimental deformation.
can you read me?
The work was created within the seminar “Can you read me?” by Susanne Stahl at the University of Applied Sciences Potsdam, including a two-day workshop with Giulia Schelm from Studio Burrow. Through analogue and digital experiments with glyphs using unconventional materials and parametric tools, the limits of legibility were explored.
