Lucy Bohr’s first skateboard illustration for EMillion

September 5, 2019

Lucy Bohr is studying B.A. Graphic Design and Visual Communication in Cologne. Just in time for the summer, the skateboard brand EMillion has produced her illustrations in series. We met Lucy Bohr for an interview where she talks about her studies, her style and her goals.

I think you can really find your own style here because you are given a lot of freedom in how you implement projects.

Lucy found her own style thanks to the artistic freedom she had during her studies. Optional subjects and project workshops enabled her to live out her passion. It became clear to Lucy early on that she wanted to design illustrations.

Last winter semester, Lucy took part in the project workshop “Skate! Surf! Snow!” on board design and illustrated the ‘swimming pool’ skateboard series, which is now being picked up and produced by the skateboard brand EMillion.

Lucy’s dream is to illustrate for magazines such as Die Zeit or the Süddeutsche Zeitung.
