In June 2014 the Alliance of German Designers (AGD) invited Sabine Reister (graphic designer and board member AGD), Victoria Ringleb (CEO AGD), Wolfgang Beinert (graphic and type designer) and myself to Hamburg Hafencity to discuss »Awareness in Design« in an expert discussion. The interview is now online. Many thanks to Nicolas Uphaus who asked the well thought through questions and to Heiko Preller who took the well made pictures.

I feel very honoured and proud to be one of the candidates for the professorship of Illustration at KHiO in Oslo. That’s why I’ve jetted off to Oslo on December 9th to give a trial-lecture – a very rewarding and exciting experience. KHiO is a fantastic place to study and teach – with an extraordinary atmosphere which evolves inside that beautiful building. I am looking forward to come back. Very much indeed.
