Lamm & Kirch is a graphic design studio focusing on the creation of books, visual identitys, and exhibitions in the broad field of the cultural sector. We mostly do printed matter. Our approach is defined by continuous cooperations in shifting constellations. We like the old and the new, the obvious and the hidden. The studio functions as a research facility to explore various ways of visual language. Our idea of working is defined by working “with” instead of “for” somebody.

Art director and graphic designer freelance based in Berlin. Trained as Architect (MA) and Communication designer (MA), she designs communication strategies, visual identities, editorial projects, and exhibitions from a multidisciplinary perspective. She works with cultural institutions, artists, and companies. She also holds a Master in Urban Studies and her research is about visual codes in public spaces. She is super passionate about graffiti, typography, and lettering. She loves drawing, printing, and bookbinding. She is always happy to meet new people and walk around telling stories :)
