About

I’m Julia, a German freelance product designer with Polish roots, based in Tbilisi, Georgia. I spent the last five years traveling the world as a digital nomad.

I’ve designed for Volkswagen, Deutsche Bahn, Commerzbank and CMS, and today I’m the sole designer at ZITADEL.

On the side, I write Desire Department, essays on why we want what we want. And I’m building Opac, a fashion label.
