Mgr. art Janka Rössl Kišš
I’ve been creating since I was a kid – from the first time I picked up chalk and pencils to today, when I use a touch pen to create on my tablet. I don’t look at boundaries when I create. My creativity shows up everywhere, from simple logo design to breathtaking illustrations to complex branding or web design. Every single piece, however, is draped in aesthetics with flair.
In 2004 I decided to submit my logo design for the city of Bratislava. I didn’t expect to get a call from the jury in a few days to tell me that I was a hot candidate for the winner. Two decades later, I am still doing graphic design. But now I’m not just an art director, I’m also a mom. My children inspire me to come up with new ideas and they are also a new source of inspiration for me.

From Wiktor Leo Burnett to Janka Kiss
The road to where I am today has not been easy. I started in a small studio called Aurius. After graduation, fate brought me to the prestigious agency Wiktor Leo Burnett. I gradually gained experience at renowned agencies like Mark BBDO, Jandl, Core4 and PXP Wunderman in Vienna. Sometimes this journey resembled a rodeo; I was often referred to as a “rebel”. Despite this label, several clients quickly grew to like me and often specifically requested me for their projects.
My greatest strength lies in unlimited creativity – finding and emphasizing unexpected connections and details. I am able to break down every phrase or idea into countless
many parts and explore their essence from multiple perspectives. My inspirations often come from dreams that accompany me, as well as from feelings and intuition. Working at top agencies has given me invaluable insights into the complex processes of building branding, advertising and design for high-profile clients. I now offer these experiences and skills I’ve accumulated over 15+ years to my own clients.
