GERMANY – SEATTLE
After studying Visual Communication at Hochschule Mainz, 13 years of experience as an Art Director in Wiesbaden followed, alongside freelance work early in the career. The focus lies on corporate design, information design and motion – from developing visual concepts and design systems to translating complex content into clear visual solutions across different media.
Projects are managed independently from concept to execution, while collaboration remains an essential part of the process – within creative teams as well as in direct exchange with clients. Since 2024, Studio Beyer has been based in the Seattle area.
