As a proof reader with a focus on coprorate publishing I’m delighted about well designed magazines as basis for my work. Additionally, René Andritsch makes sure that all of my corrections are implemented with technical and linguistic compentence.

It is convenient, if your collaboraters know what you need. And why is that – René is brilliant, he knows his stuff and the result is always spot on. It is a client’s delight.

To me working with René means not only having a professional designer by my side, but also a friend. He knows how to organize and to tackle challenges efficiently and he never loses the joy and fun working creatively. Most of all his passion for extraordinary design is contagious.

A collaboration with René is always a ceative dialogue on the highest level. His work displays aesthetic precision and a genuine interest for creating a beautiful product. René’s work combines skillful perfection and contemporary, artisitc understanding. He is a definite recommendation as a creative companion.

Uncomplicated and effective collaboration – it is obvious that René Andritsch has specialized in magazines. I appreciate his creative and innovative ideas that enrich each issue with visual highlights, which blend perfectly with the magazin‘s concept.

A successful magazine demands a lot from a graphic designer which goes far beyond the creative: wishes of authors have to be accommodated, a high measure of accuracy, patience and also some capacity for suffering. And René Andritsch has got it all. Even though we are “competitors” now, I still look back joyfully to the time of our collaboration.

In my own words ...

Together with my clients I work on strategies and concepts for analogue and digital corporate communication in the field of editorial design (magazines, books, reports, brochures, infographics) and animation.

The project begins with the common definition of the goal. The implementation follows a clear and structured project and time management. I emphasise the use of good typography, high-quality images, a balanced and appealing design as well as attention to detail. Susatinability and environmental protection are core principals of my business.
