About Tobias

I am a freelance communication designer (M.A.) with over fourteen years of professional experience as a designer, art director, and typographer.

As a communication designer, I advise and support clients, cultural institutions, and companies from a wide range of sectors in the implementation of their projects. I place great importance on close and trusting collaboration with my clients and project partners.

I design books and all book-like materials such as exhibition catalogs, art books, non-fiction books, magazines, image brochures, and so on.

Tobias Hollender designed the layout for our book "Bauerngold" and the two calendars of the same name, as well as our letterhead. Mr. Hollender works quickly, confidently, and expertly, and comes up with design ideas that consistently surprise us positively and sometimes even astound us. Discussions with him are always constructive, positive, and characterized by mutual respect. He also provided excellent advice on paper quality and finding a suitable printer. We owe him a lot, and our book "Bauerngold" would not have become what it is without his contribution. As editor-in-chief and publishing manager, I have worked with professional layout designers during my professional career. Mr. Hollender is a true professional who plays in the top league in Germany in his field.
