Senior Graphic Designer & Project Manager

Hello! I'm Dirk Schmitter from Cologne.

As a designer & owner, I help companies and agencies implement holistic and sustainable design solutions – analog & digital ✌︎.

What sets me apart? Friendly service and a passion for good design. My strength is uniting strategic thinking and technical execution for both analog and digital media. I also bring extensive experience in project management - this combination makes me stand out in the market.

What do I offer? I offer the perfect mix as an independent designer with a small design studio and a cross-functional project team. I have over 20 years of experience as a designer and project manager. I'm specialized in holistic brand design for print and online media, creating new brand worlds and refining existing ones. So if you need classic print materials, are planning a major redesign, want to evolve your corporate brand design, or need a new website, you've come to the right place.

Who is my service ideal for? Companies that want to promote and sustainably transform their brand. Those who need and appreciate support in the design process. I offer a collaborative partnership where ease and individual requirements are at the center.

I prefer working long-term with companies and agencies because I believe it leads to better results.
