Hi!
I’m Nele, a Berlin based designer and art-director who merges visual design with spatial environments to create engaging exhibitions, events and retail experiences.
These experiences are often realized in collaboration with architects, spatial designers, curators, digital designers and writers.
With more than ten years experience I have worked with organizations such as Arthesia AG, GBI AG, Die Zeit, Cruise Terminal Rotterdam, Greater London Authority, ProPotsdam and The Open University.
Areas of special interest include new approaches to the built environment and projects that reconsider heritage, narrative and place. I have previously lived and worked in Rotterdam, New York and London.

WHY NARRATIVE ENVIRONMENTS?
Narrative Environments responds to the growing need for multidisciplinary collaboration and critical, socially–engaged design. It addresses the demand for meaningful visitor experiences in cultural, commercial and community environments.
This encompasses heritage sites, museums, retail, travel and leisure destinations, urban public spaces, libraries, health and educational environments.
Increasingly, organisations want to communicate their stories through the physical environment. They may need to inform their communities; overcome social divides; develop their reputation; and increase visitor numbers or attract new audiences.
Narrative Environments constitute a core part of “the global experience economy”. This addresses the desire for transformational encounters, providing opportunities for learning, discovery, social interaction and cohesion as well as the purchase of products and services.
