About me
With backgrounds in design and sociology I'm now working as a professional in branding strategy. 2015 I started my own venture KR8 bureau in Vienna: A creative agency with strong focus on social science, behaviorism and neuro-psychology that is combining with the best of brand identity. I'm not keen on looking for target groups for my clients or go from best practice to best practice. I dare to break rules, to look at projects from a child's perspective, to deeply research on multiple disciplines and to create something that sets it's roots in the outer areas of our doxa. When it comes to design I got three main values. 1. Work with essencials, don't overbear. 2. Create an emotional impact, not for target groups, but for milieus and living environments. 3. Be adaptable and coach. From a starting point a brand has to be able to grow with you, while it coaches you to make the right decisions within your brand universe.
