Experimentation in various creative areas allows for exploratory forays into differentiated fields, both commercial and cultural, from the analogue to the digital world. In addition to projects with internationally renowned professionals, students are engaged in method lessons, where they acquire more specific knowledge for research, art direction and branding.
