Available to hire
I am Christian Guler, a Swiss graphic designer and creative director with over two decades of experience shaping brand identities and visual communication for Zurich-based agencies and international clients. As Art Director and Partner at schneiterpartner AG, I led design teams and built brand platforms, and in recent years I’ve steered creative work as Creative Director at Medianovis and TBS Marken Partner AG.\n\nMy journey began in Lucerne, Paris, and beyond, with roles at Landor Associates in San Francisco, Spiekermann Partners in Berlin, and Lars Müller Publishers in Baden, all of which sharpened my craft in typography, branding, and visual strategy. I’m fluent in German and French and proficient in English, and I enjoy mentoring trainees and developing collaborative design processes.
