My grandma liked to pronounce words with the letter „l” emphatically. This is how, for example develop became „devellop”… He repeated it many times. How interestingly the subconscious works… What is the most important part of the logotype? Grandma, do you think I’m „ develloping”?

Mamám szerette nyomatékosan kiejteni az „l” betűs szavakat. Így lett például a haladunkból „halladunk”… Nagyon sokszor hajtogatta. Milyen érdekesen működik a tudatalatti… Mi a leghangsúlyosabb rész a logotípiából? Mami szerinted „halladok”?
hello,
I am Réka Maróti, an illustrator and graphic designer living in Budapest, Hungary. My essentials are curiosity, experimentation and playfulness. I like diversity, which is reflected in my works: I like to mix techniques, manual with digital, and simple with complicated. In addition to all this, there is also a rational side of me, which requires precision, systematic thinking, and understanding.
Illustrations are the closest to me, but I also like more complex graphic design tasks. You have been able to see my work continuously at professional exhibitions.
I am happy to take part in any creative design process where you – as a customer – are also looking for a good solution and fairly open to unconventional approaches.
