My studio is located in the picturesque town of Aurich. It lies in the beautiful region of East Frisia, surrounded by windmills, moorland and the North Sea coastline. My work is extremely varied, I can offer you surprising concepts and extraordinary creations. I will accompany you from the very first scribble, through to the graphic design process and right up to the final printed product. During the project, I can also photograph your products, your premises, your team and even you, so that you can use these images for your brochures, flyers and website.

 

I love supporting agencies, publishing houses and companies on a freelance basis – be it for specific stages of a project, or from start to finish. I can quickly find my feet within on-going projects. This skill means that I can jump in at short notice where additional support is required, e.g., to cover holiday or sick leave, providing my availability allows.

Claudia Kolb née Schmidt, born in 1975 in Karlsruhe. 

Qualified as a state accredited graphic designer at Karlsruhe Graphic Design College in 1994.

 

I have been working as a graphic designer and art director since 1994, collaborating with various advertising agencies, magazine publishers, mail order companies and businesses in the B2B and B2C sectors. I have been running my own business since 2009.

 

Art and photography have been two of my greatest passions since I could first hold a pencil and a camera. Both activities were a key part of my education, and included drawing, illustrating, painting, calligraphy, as well as developing film and paper prints.
