gestalten is a publisher and creative agency mostly known for their 600 books on art, architecture, design, photography and typography. The company has staff members through offices in Berlin, London, New York and Tokyo. Gestalten’s books are unique in the industry as all are edited and designed by designers. They typically document and anticipate vital trends in visual culture, the results of which Print Magazine has called “timeless” and “a perfect expression of our time.” With their extensive range of titles, they do not only seek to enhance and to enrich their reader’s lives, but to continually engage with the surrounding creative landscape.
I’m a senior editorial designer at gestalten since 2017 and I have been involved in the design process of over 50 gestalten publications. Below is a selection of titles for which I (co-) created the design, layout and cover. A big thank you goes out to all gestalten colleagues and collaborators for the great team effort!
