Verena Michelitsch is an independent art director and designer based in New York City and Vienna, Austria. She specializes in concepting and creating brand identities through art direction and graphic design.  
         Since 2018 she’s been the co-creative director of Gossamer magazine, a bi-annual monothematic print magazine. The goal with Gossamer is to bridge the gap between the cannabis world—with all its outdated stereotypes and tired branding—and the larger lifestyle and luxury space in a creative, elevated, and accessible way. For each issue the team is collaborating with a range of international writers, photographers and illustrators.
         Besides Verena’s work with Gossamer, she worked with an array of international clients in the field of fashion, art and technology including Airbnb, Apple, Nasa/JPL, Google, Bottega Veneta and the Smithsonian.
