So far, I illustrated 30+ board books published by different German publishers and designed 13 fabric collections for a big manufacturer. Apart from that I developed many products for my own little label &#8222;k\u00e4selotti&#8220;, you can find the link to my webshop on the top right of this page.<\/p><p>I gained some additional skills in paper engineering, hand lettering and layout as well, so I can help you with more complex and conceptual three-dimensional projects in a one-stop service.<\/p><p>If you\u2019re interested in
