robinson2

robinson2 is a small, owner-operated design and web agency based in Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany. It is run by two partners who met during their graphic design studies and who present themselves publicly as "the 2 Robinsons". The studio conceives, designs and implements a broad range of communication work: innovative websites, logos, corporate design systems, business stationery, advertisements, brochures and trade-fair stands. Its stated approach is to plan every project precisely and to treat each client's work as if it were its own. The agency's speciality is websites that are easy for clients to maintain, highly functional and low-maintenance. To achieve this, robinson2 builds on the content management system TYPO3, and it offers short training sessions so that clients can handle editorial work in the backend themselves. In addition to direct client work, robinson2 supports other agencies by turning screen designs into functional websites and by working as a freelance graphic design partner. The two principals bring complementary experience. Juliane worked for seven years as a graphic designer and art director in various advertising agencies before becoming self-employed in 2012; she describes her aim as visualising every message clearly and appealingly, with room for surprise. Ben is a freelance communication designer with more than twenty years of experience developing TYPO3 projects, and he emphasises that good websites should be robust, future-proof, easy to find, inclusive and able to grow with their goals. The name robinson2 plays on the partners' surname and on the robin, which the agency notes has a long family tradition: in England the bird is called "robin", making it a namesake, and it has long been the main motif on the family's postcards, wrapping paper and Christmas cakes. The studio serves a diverse client spectrum and positions itself as a personal, craft-oriented alternative to larger agencies, combining classic communication disciplines with new media.

robinson2 is a design and web agency in Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany. Its two principals met while studying graphic design and later built a shared professional practice around classic communication design and new media. The agency presents itself as "the 2 Robinsons", a name that combines the partners' surname with the robin, a bird called "robin" in England and described by the agency as a long-standing family motif on postcards, wrapping paper and Christmas cakes. Juliane's professional path included seven years as a graphic designer and art director in various advertising agencies before she became self-employed in 2012. Ben is a freelance communication designer with more than twenty years of experience in developing TYPO3 projects. Together they offer a spectrum that runs from logos, corporate design, business stationery, advertisements and brochures through to trade-fair stands and websites, serving a diverse client base. The studio's declared speciality is websites that clients can maintain easily, that are highly functional and low-maintenance. This focus led robinson2 to standardise on the content management system TYPO3, and the agency provides short training sessions to teach clients editorial work in the backend. Beyond direct client projects, robinson2 also works for other agencies, converting screen designs into functional websites and supporting them as a freelance graphic design partner. The agency describes its working method as precise planning combined with care for each project "as if it were our own", and it frames its motivation around the challenge of new projects and the goal that everyone involved enjoys both the work and the result. Its public presence is centred on its website, where it showcases recent projects and invites contact.
