He studied at the State School of Applied Art from 1924 to 1930. He furthered his education from 1931 to 1932 in the master class of the Leipzig State Academy for Graphic Arts and Book Design. He then taught for a long time at the State Trade School. In 1944 he obtained a teaching position at the ENSV State Institute of Applied Art, where he became head of the graphic arts department (docent 1946, professor 1952), a post he held until 1982. In the field of applied graphics he received a prize in 1932 at the poster competition of the Teplice-Schönau spa in Czechoslovakia. In 1936 he won first place in the competition for designs of state decorations. After returning home from Russia he worked as a writer of honorary addresses and designer of various emblems and insignia. In the 1950s–1960s he was actively engaged in book design ("Ilias" 1960, "Odüsseia" 1963, and several works by A. H. Tammsaare, Friedebert Tuglas and Juhan Liiv).
