Servus, I'm Corinna and I'm a Senior Designer specializing in branding and packaging. I create honest design, guided by intuition and a clear sense of what works. I support companies, start-ups, and brands in developing strong visual identities and well-conceived packaging systems that work at the point of sale and are scalable in the long term. With over 15 years of experience — in agencies, as head of a graphics department in the cosmetics industry, and now self-employed — I combine strong conceptual thinking with in-depth technical and production expertise. My focus lies in brand development, packaging design for the drugstore and retail sector, and the consistent implementation across all touchpoints — from logo and corporate design to website and app. I work in a structured, reliable, and collaborative way — with a clear focus on quality, feasibility, and sustainable design decisions. --- **Employment and project experience** **Art Director** Advertising Agency _2010 - 2017_ **Head of Graphic Design** CURA Cosmetics Group _2017 - 2019_ **Founder & Art Director** nio–studio _2020 - today_
