What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

What's the most courageous thing you've ever done?

The most courageous thing I've ever done, was to decide to switch to an American High School, after moving from Germany to New York when I was 15. I remember this being a daunting experience at first since I didn't speak English perfectly while having to follow along in my classes.

How are creativity and innovation related?

I believe that innovation and creativity are related by their potential to result in an original or disruptive outcome. Both require the use of one's imagination to look beyond what already exists and interpret a specific context in new ways.

Why do companies need clarity and creativity?

Within the digital age, I believe that companies need creativity to break through the constant flow of information and reach their desired audience in a personally engaging manner. Considering that the creative process commonly requires a sense of compassion and an understanding of the individual, I believe that companies need original ideas to effectively achieve a long-lasting impression, rather than a temporary one.

You have 30 minutes of free time. What do you do with it?

I would quickly change into sportswear and ride my bike to the local basketball court and shoot hoops.

What is one risky and bold goal in life you have? Or, if you could dedicate your life to solving one problem, what would it be?

My bold goal is to one day open a design studio with four of my friends that I'm currently studying with. Alongside we would be able to develop our style and act out the benefits of full creative freedom. Additionally, I would dedicate my life to improving the imbalanced relationship that we have developed towards our phones and other hand-held devices.

Explain your creative process

I initiate my creative process through research about the subject matter, context, and target audience. Once I unfold the problem, I develop a strategy that serves as the scaffold for a creative outcome. Throughout this process, I tend to ask why the problem needs solving, how I plan on tackling it, and what format the outcome could occupy. Following the idea generation, I enter an iterative cycle of trial and error while developing a design system.

What is the best advice that you have been given?

"The only rule is work. If you work it will lead to something. It is the people who do all the work all the time that eventually catch onto things. You can fool the fans - but not the players. (Rule 7, 10 Rules for students and teachers - John Cage)

What is your definition of creativity?

Creativity is conceiving ideas from your imagination and translating them into a comprehensible form.

How do you want people to remember you?

I want to be remembered as being humble, approachable, humorous, and responsible.
