Thekla Liebmann

Editor, Art Direction

I have a fondness and not enough money for magazines. I studied design. I look constantly for challenge and discussion; TEMA offers me the opportunity to do this publicly now. I like to call things by name and like to see myself confronted. I would describe myself as a passionate autodidact of visual design. Besides TEMA, I also write for other magazines as a freelance journalist.
