Melina Wilson is a graphic designer and teacher based in Zurich. She runs the studio A Language, teaches at HKB Bern, and occasionally teams up on self-initiated research projects.
She studied at ECAL (BA) and Werkplaats Typografie (MA), where she also served as a teaching assistant.
Her life outside the studio / the classroom reads like a series of postcards: tracking Jean-Luc Godard along Lake Geneva, sunbathing in sanatoriums, or joining group trips that verge on trespassing.
