Experience and Background
I’m a freelance illustrator and graphic designer based in the UK, originally from Budapest, Hungary, now living in the UK. I specialise in brand illustration and map illustration, and also create poster designs and non-fictions book illustrations.
I have been illustrating for over ten years and created a great number of maps, posters and brand illustrations. Inspired by people and places, my imagery that is often described as dreamy, tells stories of past and present. A large part of my image-making is experimenting with textures which I then apply to my hand-drawn illustrations digitally. I’m also the illustrator and author behind Meat in the Middle, a short interactive documentary about the effect of a meat-based diet on the environment.
Recent clients include the National Trust and Kelmscott Manor, the summer residence of William Morris.

Trusting my work
Here is what my clients have said about me
“Kati has been a pleasure to work with. Her dedication to the project has been consistent from the first minute to the last. She captured perfectly what the Old Fire Station stands for through her extensive research, unique way of seeing, beautiful colour palette and dreamy characters. We are overjoyed with the result!”
Justine Malone
Arts at the Old Fire Station, Oxford
“The illustrations and site-map that Kati has created for Kelmscott Manor are really very successful and everyone associated with the National Lottery Heritage Fund project was equally impressed with their clarity and the way in which the drawings of the Morris family members, birds and other characters work so well with the typography. She has made a delightful contribution to the Interpretation of the Manor and its outbuildings.”
Peter Cormack
MBE FSA Hon. Curatorial Adviser, Kelmscott Manor
“Kati has been an utter delight to work with and her illustrations have already become a treasured part of our College community. Now, with the map, we have a lovely (and very useful!) souvenir to give our visitors!“
Maryanne Saunders

“We’re so lucky to be working with such a talented and curious illustrator! Kati’s talent is not just her delicate graphics, but also the wit and insight that she instills in them!”
