This is the online portfolio of Katrin Janka, born in 1981, female,
currently living and working in the Rhein-Main area.
I spent the last five years in beautiful Mainz, studying and producing
the work you can see on this page. I finished my studies in May 2008
with my DIPLOMA. Right now I'm working as a freelancer, always
looking for new jobs and challenges.
As you can tell by looking at my work I am mainly doing printed based
projects, like books and corporate design. I like my work to be well-
thought-out and good looking, always with a special interest in typography.
