Spineless Wonders

Bettina has not only made our books look absolutely beautiful and totally pickupable, she is a dream to work with. Betty listens. Teases out the different possibilities, helping our team of authors and editors crystallise key themes. Transforms them into works of art. It is an exciting and rewarding process to work with her.

Caroline Reid

Bettina Kaiser designed and illustrated my debut collection of poetry and prose, SIARAD. [...] We had a tight deadline but that didn’t phase Bettina, who always regarded problems as opportunities for creativity. The product I’ve ended up with is wonderful. Bold, innovative, and beautiful, the book Bettina created is so much more than a book. It’s a work of art. I couldn’t be happier.

Megan Wynne-Jones

Bettina was an excellent choice of designer to work on my self-published collection of poetry and images. From the beginning she grasped the concept of the book, and her enthusiasm for it was inspiring. [...] I’m grateful that we were able to share the creative joy of the project and would recommend her to anyone looking for a creative, reliable and committed designer.
