designer thinker maker learner dreamer

I am Tanja Ott, designer, idea collector and tech savvy maker. When I am not creating a UI, working on a 3D animation or perfecting my portfolio for the thousandth time, I am probably building a miniature out of trash or testing whether my dog Paul would make a good creative director.

About me

I move somewhere between Figma, Cinema 4D and Adobe CC where everything feels a little brighter, friendlier and lighter. Most of my projects have a personality of their own. I love giving brands character and shaping complex ideas in a way that feels fun. My designs aim to be clear without ever becoming boring. Playful without feeling childish. Professional with a small wink.

I am also an idea collector and a tech-savvy maker. When I am not designing a UI, creating a 3D animation, or perfecting my portfolio, I am probably building a miniature out of trash, testing whether my dog Paul would make a good creative director or planning my next trip.

Feel free to take a look at what I have been working on professionally over the past years.
