Hand lettering with style, calmness, and creative energy in Bielefeld
The workshop Writing & Design brings fresh creativity to the coworking space at Heins works in H1 on September 9, 2026. From 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM, analog design will be the focus: pen instead of screen, experimentation instead of perfection, letters with character instead of standardized typography. The course is aimed at participants aged 10 and above and is led by Markus Olson, a graphic designer and lettering artist from NRW, who works with branding, sign painting, lettering logos, and workshops.

Writing & Design combines hand lettering, design, and art into an event experience that brings together concentration and lightness. Participants will try out different lettering tools, materials, and techniques while working step by step on the basics. The format intentionally focuses on a relaxed event atmosphere where creativity is allowed to flourish, and everyone works at their own level.
