Brainster: What is your professional formal educational background? Did you always want to be a designer? How did you make this decision?
Sergej: Besides working as a graphic designer I am currently studying Industrial design. I’ve always been in love with colours, forms, and visuals so I knew that I wanted to be some kind of designer. The first drawing tablet that I got when I was little, pointed me in the Graphic Design/Illustrating direction.

Sergej: To get out of the comfort zone. To seek inspiration beyond the sources you already know. Experiment with new workflows that will produce great results.

Sergej: Being observant helps me to find inspiration easily. I like skateboarding. Every single skateboard has a different graphic and there is a whole heap of them. I would say that this is one of my bigger sources of inspiration. Here are a few examples…
Brainster: What is the 1 designer you admire most?
