I’m Michael, a multidisciplinary designer with over thirty years of experience, based in Zurich. I create unique stories through Branding, Digital Design and Art Direction. I aim to craft experiences that translate brand ethos into empathy, within the digital space. I make things happen. Somewhere between design and technology.
Interested in a collaboration or just wanna say hi?

I use craft, ingenuity and my experience to build unconventional design solutions for companies and individuals. The results are progressive, engaging and enduring.
I don’t have any fancy charts or diagrams that explain my creative process. It adapts and evolves depending on the needs of every single client and project. And I don’t have clever names for the stages of each project. But I am curious. I believe that to truly solve a problem you need to talk about it. You need to look at it from every angle. You need to discuss it. You need to pull it apart, then put it back together again. And sometimes you have to take new, unconventional paths or discard something and start all over again. You have to stay curious and never stop asking questions. That’s my process.
Have a project, idea or product you want to bring to life?
Let’s talk and see how we can work together.
