Alex Vonn
A complete overhaul involving 3D illustration and variable typography for the fintech sector.
Based in Europe, working globally. With 8 years of agency experience, I founded Glyph & Chroma to work closer with founders and creators. I drink too much espresso and obsess over kerning tables.
