Hi there! I am BenLeander_
After some years of working in advertising agencies, I have founded my visual design studio in 2020 focusing on brand development and storytelling.
Besides working in advertising, I have experiences in journalism which is where my love for written language stems from. You can read some of my stories on my English blog where I’ve also sub-linked some of my German work. We can communicate in English or German.
Learn more about me, my services and my process below and don’t hesitate to ask me for my special conditions for social and artistic projects as well as start-ups!

Good Brands make you feel connected.
When you start a business, you may want to dive right into work. However, in order to make your brand recognizable, it’s important to develop a brand strategy that transports the emotions and values you want to be associated with. Together we will find a plan individualized to your needs.
