Hi, my name is not Kyle and i'm not a pro skater from L.A.
But I'm the one you're lookin' for!

Who is this odd-lookin’ guy?

Howdy stranger,
my name is Jan. I'm a graphic-designer from Cologne. Since I enjoy all kinds of creativity, I don't focus on a specific discipline. Instead I aim to learn and execute new stuff all day. My brain works visually most of the time, but even though I appreciate awesome ideas that stand out. Creating fancy artworks and nonconservative concepts has always been my greatest pleasure.

I started learning Flash 6 around 2002 and created my first animations at that time. Ever since then I delevoped new skills in creating websites and illustrations. I also got addicted to photography influenced by my parents. My Life is all
about having fun
so I try to spend as much time as possible creating things. Fortunately I found my destination in graphic design.

Today I'm finding inspiration for my projects from different hobbies and activities. I love going to concerts or to the cinema. I enjoy listening to different styles of music and sometimes create some togehter with my band Hypertight. I spend time on cooking with friends and like to party sometimes. In summer I go out riding my bike (BMX & MTB) and in winter I ride the mountains on my snowboard.
