Images make brands. Brands make images.

11/20/2018 | »We live in a visual age«. We hear this often, but it’s only partly true. We’ve always taken in about 80 percent of all information about the world around us through our eyes.

Our brains prioritize images over written material because they recognize, process and store them 60,000 times faster – and because they directly appeal to our emotions. Pictures represent reality, symbols and atmosphere at the same time, which is why they are so important.

Alexa, Marietta Slomka and the Catbot

09/13/2017 | Everyone’s talking about conversational interfaces these days. But why? What are they? And what do they mean for users, companies and designers?

(Tip: The Catbot allows you to chat with a digital cat about fish). Voice-controlled systems are also available, including programs like Apple’s Siri or Amazon’s Alexa. These seem especially effortless – after all, each one of us is naturally equipped with his or her own enhanced conversational interface: the face.

Here we go

06/23/2017 | The panel of judges at the Graphis Design Annual 2018 gave us a Silver award in the »Print / Editorial« category for the research magazine we designed for the University of Heidelberg, titled »Stop & Go«.
