Katrin Smejkal, founder of Bureau Smejkal, is a graphic designer and art director. Her areas of expertise are editorial design and the development of corporate designs.
Having worked as a designer for award-winning agencies in London and Vienna, as well as a broad range of international clients, she has learned that the key to creating a unique and meaningful design solution is, first and foremost, to truly listen and thus understand each clients specific needs.
A key element of her work is typography, which also provides the starting point for her visual explorations in the field of linguistics, a project first started during a Master of Arts course at the London College of Communication.
