My task was to create a complex board game on an exciting topic. Black holes and their reputation for hungrily devouring all matter around them have always fascinated me.
The challenge I set myself was to develop an aesthetically pleasing design that combines a geometric, minimalist design language with functionality. All elements on each card reflect the number it represents. The more special the action on the card, the more detailed the design elements. The game board is intended to appear mystical and elegant and was made as a 3D model in Blender. A rotating element gives the game more interactivity.

OF A POSSIBLE FUTURE
TOM WAITS
ILLUSTRATED LYRICS TO STORIES OF AN HONEST FABULIST
Tom Waits is famous for his smoky voice and idiosyncratic blues songs. With charm, he tells stories of nocturnal aberrations, everyday curiosities, hopeless romance and the darker side of life. As his songs have accompanied me since my youth, I have set myself the task of compiling ten Waits stories in a brochure and illustrating each with a lead picture. My illustrations are intended to give expression to the absurd stories and bizarre characters. The illustrations are done in pencil and reworked in Procreate.
