Anita Allemann illustrates concisely and to the point - but always leaves room for narration and a pinch of humor. This applies not only to freelance work, but also to magazine commissions, icons or infographics. "Illustrating has always been my passion, and I think you can see this joy in drawing in my pictures."

However, the 39-year-old came to her dream job in a roundabout way: After her first job as a primary school teacher, Allemann attended graphics classes at the School of Design in Bern and Biel. She then worked for eight years as a graphic designer and art director at the Zurich design agency Raffinerie. Since 2016, she has been working as a freelance illustrator in Bern and Berlin.
