The face behind lunar design studio

Hey there,

my name is Nicole and I’m so happy you’re here! I started my studies at Macromedia University in Cologne in 2016 and have never looked back since. During my 5+ years of experience, I learned that design is always the strategic answer to a question. I take this principle to heart in my own business today and create brand identities that have a strong foundation and steer your business in the right direction for the long term.

How I became a graphic designer

Graphic design is something I fell in love with during my studies in Cologne, Germany. I have always been the creative type, drawing doodles on my math test instead of solving the actual math problem, learning about photography when I was a teen, always finding joy in drawing and crafting things, etc. I didn’t know for a long time what I wanted to do in life until I learned about graphic design and how much it impacts the daily life of all human beings. It was there where I recognized that I could in fact use my creativity for something this awesome and actually help people!

I also learned during my studies that there is so much more to design than the pretty outcome we see at the end of the process. I fell in love with creating a real foundation for the projects through research and strategies and building brands with meaning and intention.

It’s the analytical and strategic part that excites me the most, since it’s right here where the magic happens and the concepts come to life for the first time.

Why I do what I do

Mindfulness

My goal is to create a positive and mindful space for small business owners in which we create the most beautiful, authentic and long-lasting brand identities for your business!

Connection

My goal for this studio is to create deep and meaningful connections with people (like you!) that find value in the same things as I do. I would love to one day have a big network of like-minded people that cheer each other on and support each other every step of the way.

Passion

This studio is my dream come true. I pour all my love and creativity into the projects because I love what I do and I couldn’t imagine doing anything else at this point!
