Hi, nice to meet you in hyperspace! My name is Max and I’m a graphic and interaction designer from Switzerland. This is my digital archive. Feel free to look around or get in touch.
I’m a graphic and interaction designer working in St.Gallen and Basel. Since 2009 I'm self-employed and I love it. During those 8 years I had the pleasure to work with national and international clients from a range of fields. I always strive for surprising visual experiences while providing high functionality at the same time. I don’t think the purpose of graphic design is to make things just pretty. My work involves the digital as well as the analog world. In my opinion those fields are not contradictory, they benefit from one another. I love new media, videography and code as much as typography, editorial design, books and posters – as long as it challenges me – I’m interested. Whether it’s a commission or a freelance job – I'm open for collaborations of all kind.
