LESSONS IN DESIGN: FRAUKE STEGMANN / TREADER

Some of us like animals, and so does designer and illustrator Frauke Stegmann – born in Germany, raised in Namibia, based in South Africa. I used to study with Frauke, and she’s a peculiar character with her very own view of the world – which also translates into her design work, to an extent that is truly unique. A perfect example would be her record sleeves for the independent jazz label Treader, featuring a variety of animals embossed in gold on cheapest coloured cardboard; a bizarre mixture of materials that somehow works perfectly well together.

    Hi Frauke

    I was wondering it were you and your mom that I saw in Spar a few days ago? I wanted to say hi but didn’t want to intrude. Are you working in Whk now and are you still interested in a teaching position? I left Unam and they may advertise a post soon. Pls contact me if you want to meet for a coffee and chat. Best regards, Hercules 0811247748
