About Ellen

I support brands, organizations, and teams in translating complex content, structures, and digital projects into clear design solutions and developing them sustainably.

With my background in architecture and communication design, I bring a strong understanding of systems and a good sense for the interrelationships between organization, brand, content, space, and digital interfaces. I have extensive experience in developing brand identities, corporate design, and brand experiences, in UX/UI design for digital projects, and in leading co-creative formats such as brand and strategy workshops. With experience as an art director in agencies and as a freelancer, I bring both design expertise and an understanding of brand development and change processes.

I look forward to exciting projects!
