Germany (DE)
The Hamburg agency Politikwerft has specialized in corporate design. They deliver the website, the printed documents, photos - everything from a single source. Designing a uniform image for companies: That's what the makers of the Politikwerft see as their task. The name "Politikwerft" is not a reminiscence of their field of study, but dates back to the company's early days: Horstmann and Braun received their first commission for web design and poster design from a citizenship candidate whom they had met through a fellow student. Apparently, others also had a need for support in the field of design: once started, the company, which was not even one at the time in 2011, continued to develop and quickly gained more clients through word of mouth.
