Student Inspirations

Expand the limits of visual design thinking

Book designer Anja Lutz shared her initiative that invites designers to push beyond the boundaries of their own ways of working in her Berlin-based experimental graphic design studio A—Z. 

“My goal is to create a space that expands the limits of graphic design thinking by providing a trans-disciplinary environment where graphic design enters into dialogue with other areas such as contemporary art, cultural research, or social engagement,”

Lutz said in her presentation. “Expanding, connecting and sharing knowledge with other disciplines—these dialogues and overlaps are vital to helping us to become aware of the larger context of our societies and the world around us.”
