Koehler has also worked for publishers such as Soleil Productions, Fauvard and DC Comics, among others, as well as creating scientific illustrations of Archeology and History. In 2015, Koehler became curator of Festival Internacional de Quadrinhos, the most traditional comics festival in Brazil. In the same year, she published in Brazil the independent graphic novel Beco do Rosário, which talks about the modernization of Porto Alegre in the 1920s and tells the fictional story of Vitória, a young girl who lives in the area of Beco do Rosário and who dreams to become a journalist. The drawings were made with dip pen and watercolor. The work was developed in parallel to Koehler's Master dissertation, whose theme was the urban changes of the region of Beco do Rosário. In 2016, Koehler won the Troféu HQ Mix, the most important Brazilian comic book award, in the category "best independent author publication" by her graphic novel Beco do Rosario. An art exhibition about this book, held in Galeria Hipotética, in Porto Alegre, with original pages, photos from 1920s and character and scenery studies, also won the award in the same year in the category "best exhibition".
