Some places ask to be explained. Others to be experienced.

I collaborate with cultural institutions on illustrations, maps, and visual narratives that help visitors orient themselves, understand a place, and engage more deeply with its mission — whether through printed materials, exhibitions, wall installations, or digital formats.

Campus and site maps are conceived as invitations: tools that reflect an institution’s values, history, and structure while remaining clear and accessible. When relevant, these maps can also be animated, allowing spaces and surroundings to come to life across screens and presentations.

Alongside maps, I create illustrations and visual systems that translate complex information into images — for brochures, internal communication, exhibitions, and public-facing content. The aim is not decoration, but clarity: images that are remembered, and information that is understood.

I also work with institutions wishing to highlight their heritage. Through historical maps, drawings, and animated elements, past and present are brought into dialogue — from large-scale wall murals to printed pieces designed to last.

Projects are developed in close conversation with teams, with attention to context, audience, and long-term use.

“For years now, I have had a chance to work with Sonja on numerous book covers for the edition Reka. Sonja was my choice since the beginning to illustrate these books and book covers and she was definitely the right one! Sonja’s beautiful illustrations and interesting and captivating images, helped this edition of books rise above all others on the market. Some twenty books later, we are an established and well known book publisher of modern novels and contemporary writers and Sonja is a very precious colleague and a team member. I also appreciate the fact that she knows technical details when it comes to printing and digital files (for social media as well) and is always ready to come up with an idea how to promote and make the project stand out.
