CV
To me visual communication-in architecture and graphic design-has often been about the challenge of paradoxes; aesthetics vs. functionality or minimalism vs. chaos, and still visual communication is the most transcendental thing I’ve stumbled upon in life. It’s a constant excuse to stay curious, learn something new and to interact with and observe society, media and people in general. And somewhere in between that I focus on the details, the process and keeping it simple.
The course is ideal for beginners, employers, entrepreneurs as well as people in their designing skills. Based on the past experience half of the students have a strong passion for design however didn't get a chance yet to create anything touchable so far. The other half are students already immersed in designed with decent drawing and illustration skills but no significant digital graphics skills. The main focus is on Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop.

Online Marketing Challenge
Working on a project with students from other countries was a great learning experience in terms of understanding the differences and similarities between the cultures and perspectives that are observed in different parts of the world. I wrote very interesting article about my European Summer School experience here.
