HI!
I‘m martin,
an art director
& illustrator.
I’m living & working in Leipzig, Germany.
I create brand identities, print products, websites, illustrations and everything
in-between.
Currently working as an Art Director at my agency '8mylez' – based in Leipzig, Germany.
Fulled by the passion to make the world with my possibilities a little bit nicer and to enrich,
I have devoted myself to the creative.
With over 11 years experience,
I have held both Art Direction and Illustration positions in Hamburg, Leipzig & Dresden.
I had opportunity to work with internationally established brands as well as local business.
I‘m always keen to hear about new collaborations and interesting projects so feel free to shoot me a message.
p.s. I really like copper.

Graphic design forms the nuts and bolts of what
I do; a visual form of communication that can be cleverly manipulated in order to make any visual identity sing.

ILLUSTRATION
I’ll add a touch of personality to your brand by injecting impactful illustrations where photography won’t work – to visually explain your story.
