Project Overview
The Project
Let me introduce one of my most favourite projects: a collaborative project with the talented illustrator Julian Nitsche for the book Tobi das Imsel. The aim of this project was the creation of the world’s (probably) first, entirely on an iPad illustrated, children’s book. Over the course of about two years, we brought the story of Tobi das Imsel to life in this beautifully illustrated book. As the owner and founder of Dandy Books, I oversaw and led the production as Art Director. I envisioned the aesthetic of the story, managed production, lead the visual creation of the books character design and designed the books editorial, title and its catchy cover. This project was featured by ProCreate and Adobe, exhibited on the Frankfurt Book Fair and nominated for the British-Book-Design-Award. As if this wasn’t yet enough, I collaborated with the talented singer and songwriter Felix Schneider of the Flying Penguin band and audio-engineer-genius Florian Knoll, to produce a beautiful companion song for the book, to which you can listen to at the bottom of this page.
