Following my studies I founded HERBURG WEILAND design agency, together with Martin Fengel and Judith Grubinger. I have been based at the agency ever since, working as an Art Director for magazine and journal publishers (Burda, Springer, Gruner&Jahr, Callwey), book publishing houses (Suhrkamp, Klett-Cotta, Kiepenheuer&Witsch, Random House), and organizations such as the Residenz Theater, the stateopera in Berlin, the Lenbachhaus in Munich and the Bauhaus in Dessau. During this time, HERBURG WEILAND has been awarded many national and international design awards. In addition to my own professional activities, I teach magazine design at the German School of Journalism in Munich and give talks about book design. Together with Marc Ritter, I just published my first book "Das Allerletzte", which was named as one of "the best books of 2014" by Stiftung Buchkunst.
We recently developed a new corporate design for the famous Bauhaus in Dessau using only Arial, no colors and DIN formats. Probably the most challenging task we did in the last years.
Yes! A website we dedicated to our book designs only -> bookswemade.com

It’s going to be even more about content, ideas and concept.
No fear of failure!
